ok i realize what i posted earlier in this same thread will tell you if you have a locking dif, but does it actually work on factory limited slip? i've never actually tried it. The reason i'm asking is this...
I cant read my axle tag. its rusted all the heck. I can make out the very last number of where itshould say L55 or what have you, so i can basically read a 5 on the very end...
the door tags axle code is H9 (i have a 91 eddie bauer) and i've read that h9 decodes to 3.55 LS
I was on the trail the other weekend, found a nice dirt pile (the one thats my avatar) and decided to test my stock bronc's flex. I may have hit it a little aggressively at first and ended up with the rear drivers tire in the air (oops) i tried to back off the mound (had it in 2wheel) and when i put it in reverse, lightly touched the gas, and the in-air tire spun, and i didnt not move. Instead of flooring it (should've tried..not sure how much effort it takes to lock up if i have LS) i just put it in 4h and back down. (i later remounted the mound with all 4 tires on the ground for the pic).
What this entire little story is getting at is i'm untrusting if i have LS now. Going uphil on loose dirt/gravel my buddys didnt notice either tire spinning when i tried to spin them out. Short of taking the dif cover off, how can i be sure i have LS?
If i do i'm sure i need a new clutch pack, but i don't want to buy the clutch pack, take it apart, and find out i dont have LS...or vice versa. i dont want to take it apart and find out i do have LS, put it all back together and then go get a new clutch pack... i dont have a garage so i wouldnt want to just leave it in pieces while i'm going out for parts etc.
