Scott.T Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I have done a little searching but havent came up with anything. How can you tell if you have factory LSD? I have a 95 xe. I know on some vehicles they have codes in the glove box that will let you know what you have. Is there anything that will tell you if you have it without taking the cover off?

918pathy Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Put it Neutral, Jack up the rear end and spin the rear wheel if both wheels spin the same direction you have a LSD...If that makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo94 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 If they spin the opposite ways you have an open diff so when it turns in a different direction its basically having infinite slip. Also i herd somewhere that if you have lsd it should be hard to move your wheels unless your lsd is broken. I think its something like 70Ft-lb required to be able to move the wheels but i could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 The easiest way to tell is to look at the back of the rear axle. It should have a radioactive-orange sticker that says 'LSD OIL ONLY.' If it's got that, it's LSD. The other way is to do a burnout on gravel. Two tire marks? LSD. One tire mark? Open. I think there's a 'Do I have LSD?' thread pinned somewhere.

Scott.T Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Thanks for the info guys. I will have to check it in a couple months when I get back from the desert. I was bored so I thought I would get a head start lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
