On that basis, the good thing is that you have a large number of possible final drive ratios. I wonder what ratio it has got in it at the moment ?
If you still have the propshaft disconnected, then the easiest way to check is by turning the yoke at the front and counting how many turns of the yoke for one revolution of the wheel.

What engine you got in yours?

To tell whether its LSD I would need to open it up right?

The OP has an auto box at present, although the plan is to change it to a manual (see other posts). Even in Neutral an auto box will tend not to allow fully free rotation of the rear wheels. So does this affect the LSD test with a very draggy pinion ?

Finally found the time to jack it up again and do the tests.conrod wrote:Viviacolombia wrote:

no, just put a floor jack under the axle and lift both wheels off the ground. Rotate one back wheel by hand. If the opposite side turns in the same direction, it is an LSD. If it turns in the opposite direction it is not LSD.
