Flat tow w 8.8 Limited slip?
« on: April 07, 2011, 05:41:32 PM »
Can you flat tow a jeep with a limited slip in the rear axle or will it simply eat the crap out of the tires? should I consider putting a selectable locker in?

I'm putting an 8.8 in, I was considering limited slip but I want to make sure I can still flat tow it.

There shouldn't be any more wear then if you drive it.

I flat-tow with spools in both axles, no problems.
