Fill out the form and you will probably have a response in 24-48

The VIN is the most important thing. You can get it off your
registration or the tag on the dash. Hopefully the numbers match.

That's great. Thanks for the link. That will be a big help.

So according to info I've found in other discussions on this forum I
figured out that I DON"T have a limited slip differential.
I jacked up the rear up my Jeep, put it in Neutral and turned one of
the wheels. The other wheel turned in the opposite direction, which
means I have an open diff.

So I don't have to add the Limited slip gear additive. So as of this
minute it doesn't matter if I have Quadra-Trac or not (the additive I
bought said not for use in Jeeps with Quadra-Trac). Though I'd still
like to know if I have it or not (and what it is anyway) and I'll find
out with the answers I've gotten in this forum.

You guys are always a great help.

Thanks.

Sorry DougW, but you are WRONG. Quadratrac IS what the manufacturer calls
THEIR limited slip in this situation. ALL manufacturers have a name for
their limited slip, and this is Jeep/chryslers.

Here is what to expect when the build sheet email arrives.

Don't worry about details, I live in Canada so I faked it.

Your build sheet should be very accurate. The sheet for my 1991 had
several small errors (like 16 inch tires on 15 inch wheels).

Also, in the comments box say:
The complete VIN is: 1J4FJ78S8ML......
