lsd?

[love the general]

hi all just a quick questin how can i tell if a diff is an lsd without actually driving the car. thanks in advance

[nicko]

jack the car up so that both rear wheels are off the ground. Spin one of the wheels in a forward direction. If the opposite wheels turns in the same direction then you do NOT have an LSD or spool. If the opposite wheel turns in the oppostie direction then u have an LSD.

EDIT: Woops reverse that

I think its the other way around :P

If they both spin the same way then its a lsd or spool.... If one spins forward and one spins back its a single

^^^ second that - both turn in the same direction.

also LSD should have a tag to say it is a LSD.

the above is fine unless the LSD is totally rooted and then it will behave just like a standard diff doing those tests. the only way to truelly tell is to remove the cover off the diff so that you can identify the center properly.
