2003 differential clutch
I started noticing a vibration at slow turning or starting out from a stop into a turn. My 2003 F150 only had 22000 miles when this began and has become incresingly worse. The dealer told me that the only fix was to replace the clutches in the rear end. $400 to $500 ouch! I tried adding a little extra conditioner with little or no effect?

If you still have problems after that then change the clutches. If cost is an issue it won't hurt to try this rather than pay that much for a rebuild.

friction modifier
Thanks for the info. I had the cover off last summer because it had started to leak. The lube didnt look metalic but was cloudy. I replaced the lube and used part of a tube of the modifier. The tube was 7oz. which was more than what I needed for the recommended mix. Are the tubes that you mentioned the same?
