How do I tell which one I need for my car?
Have a look on your weight plate, top number is gross vehicle weight, next is gross train weight (for towing so not all will have a weight listed). Next is front axle max, and last the rear axle max.
I would hazzard a guess that the higher rated are for diesel's, but your plate should give you a goid idea.
