I have owned for about three months an 09 Ranger Sport 4.0 5 speed 4x4 with the stock limited slip rear axle, R6 code...94,000 miles and it seems to have not been abused..
The posi seems to function normally but at slow speeds making sharp right or left turns there a slight humming noise or low "squealing" noise from the rear axle. It's noticeable when coasting or at neutral throttle, step on the gas a bit and the noise seems to disappear..Other than low speed sharp turns the rear axle is quiet...
I have both a Chevy and Jeep with limited slips and they don't make this noise but like the Ranger they do chatter a bit when turning on loose surfaces...
No know history so maybe I should just change the rear axle oil....
