Rebuilt Kit 8.8 Traction Loc w/ Carbon Discs

The Rebuilt Kit 8.8 Traction Loc w/ Carbon Discs is a complete differential rebuild solution engineered for Ford 8.8-inch rear axles equipped with Traction-Lok limited-slip technology. This kit serves operators, fleet maintainers, and enthusiasts who demand reliable load-holding performance in demanding conditions—whether on patrol routes, tactical transport, or challenging terrain where wheel slip must be minimized. A quality rebuild kit restores the clutch pack engagement and lock-up characteristics that factory differentials gradually lose through thermal cycling and use.

The Rebuilt Kit 8.8 Traction Loc w/ Carbon Discs combines a full clutch pack assembly with carbon-coated friction discs, precision-machined hardware, and shim sets calibrated to OEM tolerances. Carbon disc technology resists thermal fade better than organic compounds, maintaining consistent preload and lock-up torque under sustained high-load conditions. The complete hardware package—springs, pins, and retention rings—ensures proper load distribution across the clutch stack, while factory-specification shims restore the exact side-gear clearances required for smooth operation and optimal torque bias.

This rebuild kit is ideal for vehicle owners restoring worn Ford 8.8 differentials to factory performance or upgrading aging assemblies in high-utilization vehicles. Installation requires standard differential service tools and competent axle work; proper installation technique and torque specifications are critical to achieving intended lock-up feel and longevity. The complete kit format eliminates guesswork by including all friction surfaces, steel plates, and hardware in a single package, reducing the risk of incomplete or mismatched component assembly.
