Do I have a LSD ????

[weblst]

I have a VT II Exec sedan 1999 and have NO idea if it has a limo diff or no. Any holden heads tell me if it comes with one stock ?????


Thanks..

No they don't come stock with them. There should be a tag on the diff to tell if you have one.

A LSD in a Exec would of been ordered with one from new, or a previous owner has fittted it themselves. Is your VT an ex cop car if it is it will have the 9c1 pack which includes the LSD. Check the tag on the diff it will have LSD stamped on it , or spin resistant stamped on it, or jack the back of the car up & see if the wheels turn in the same direction when you turn them by hand. Cheers.

test: full lock and tramp it

agree with above:

If your car does this then you have one!

i have a single legger yet if i full lock and boot it, it will spin both and whip me around and then open up with a big lefty. Maybe has something to do with the manual?? It will spin both wheel on the spot but its not LSD.

[JD]

i've always thought if you can get a single to spin both that thats your diff telling you its on the way out???

[nicko]

i dont think so, or i would be buy lots of cheap about to die diffs so i could do twin skids lol. a lsd will single leg when on its way out though. i think being a manual you are able to drop the clutch at peak torque so it has enough to spin both and not just open up to one.

[JD]

hmm maybe my VP isn't LSD then, i presumed because it can spin both its a LSD, now im not quite as convinced. ( its a manual as well )

[nicko]

yeh just have a look at the diff and read the tag, will say "use only approved lsd fluid" or something like that. or as said jack up the rear and turn one of the wheels, if the other one turns the same way its lsd if it goes backwards then its single pegger

[scrabet]

my vs spins both wheels and it isnt lsd

[JD]

I might have to do that 2moro ( actually today! )

[holden007]

on the casing it should write 'LSD', my friends VX SS has LSD but only spins the right wheel.

i would say your mates lsd is worn out then.. mine spins both

[dijm8]

just found out that i have an LSD 2day lol, left a nice set of twins down at marion lol,
best way to find out is to burn it up id say

[Wagon_Wheel]

Actually looked at the tag on my diff while i was under the car today.
It said somthing like, High performance LSD, use specific fluids only or somthin on it.
Maybe something to look for if ur unsure

[galahs]

A open diff will send all drive the wheel that is easiest to spin.

If they are both equally easy, like when going in a straight line, it is quite common for both wheels to spin.

I wouldnt be surprised, he blew the gearbox, next the diff!

[anothervn]

mates vx is lsd, singles everywere same as another mates 5ltr bt1 vs both cars have irs,
my vn and others i have seen spins double everywere a good single spinner diff should single but worn ones spin both, doesnt mean its about to **** tho.
I reckon live axles are better for burnouts!
