Hello. I have a 95 YJ. Sahara. 4.0, manual. It has the usual D35/30.
How do I determine if it has limited slip.

Thanks,
Greg

The cover should have a tag bolt between two, saying to use the
additive. Or just jack a wheel and see if you can turn it by hand in
neutrial.

The wheel turning would indicate lsd?

Also what are the other options there? And what is the difference?

Jack both rear wheels up, put it in neutral, turn one wheel. If the
Opposite wheel turns in the SAME direction, you have LSD. Put it in any
gear, if the opposite wheel turns the OPPOSITE direction, you do NOT
have LSD (or the LSD clutch pack is bad).

If the axle melts, turns iridescent colors, grows diaphanous scales and a
huge dragon head, you hear a thunder clap and a clear loud voice says
sweetly, "Take my hand, Jerry" -- then you are ON lsd.

Prosit,

Earle

Does anyone know if there is a "lunchbox spool" available (besides
Lincoln Locker)? I would like to try out a spool (cheaper that
lunchbox locker) but be able to go back to open diff without much
trouble.

Thanks Bill. Knowing they are called mini-spools I'll be able to
search for others.
