do a burn out and look at your tire marks..



although it is possible to light both tires uo even with an open diff..

jack up the rear end. Turn one tire. If the opposite wheel turns in the same direction, then you have a LSD. If it turns in opposite direction it is an open diff.



That normally applies to a gear based LSD. Does that same guideline apply to viscous LSDs? Nissan has this bad habit of using viscous LSDs. I like the clutch-type or helical gear type the best personally.
