Where to buy shims for trac loc?

[Quik03GT]

My trac loc is getting pretty bad, most of the time it only spins the right rear tire. I've been told that just replacing the clutch packs may not help, and the best way is to shim up the clutch packs so they have less tendancy to spin just one tire. Anyone one where I can find these shims?


Thanks!

TTT....Surely some of you guys have had to buy the parts to do this job

Thanks for the info, at least its not too expensive. Anyone know if the gearset has to come out in order to do this?

Thanks

you need to take the carrier out but you can leave the pinion in, with a preshimed kit you don't even have to take the carrier out. But you get better performance from a T-lok you shim a little on the tight side yourself.

I see, thnaks for the info. Does the rebuild kit come with enough shims to make it "on the tight side?" Sorry for all these questions, just want to make sure I do it right the first time around!

The local Ford should have the shim kit.

Off topic.

When changing differential fluid, do I use friction modifier? 98 GT. Don't feel like making a thread to ask that question.
