Limited slip identification inquiry ??

Ive got a 1995 ford E350 van I know it has a limited slip from the factory "axle code C2 " but I cant find any reference to what type of limited slip they used?

I bringing it up now as I`m having a yard sale this weekend.
I`ve got a brand new Detroit truetrac and 3.73 gears that I may put in the sale.
I have 177,000 on the odometer so If the OEM model that is in the van is a clutch syle its probably about do for a rebuild.
I would probably rather just swap in the truetrac at that point unless it already has one.
I`m currently experiencing no known issues with my axle but hate to sell the truetrac then regret it in the next year or so when I decide to refresh the clutch packs.
Anyone know what brand limited slips were installed OEM of that year?

I'm no expert but the the factory LSD should use clutches......keep the Truetrac.


I'm in the process of doing ring & pinion on both axles from 3.73 to 4.10 and installing truetracs both ends...haven't bought the tru-tracs yet but I'm about to.

Ford used clutch type limited slips. If you install the Truetrac, you will eliminate the clutches since the Truetrac uses helical type gears instead. I've installed a Truetrac both front and rear on my van and find them to work very well.....
