86 sport...lsd???
ok i got an 86 sport.. 5lug 4 piston... etc.. and i was just wondering everywhere ive read it hasd been said THAT NO BASE/SPORT MODELS CAME WITH LSD.
now i was under ym car and i spun one tire and the other stood still (open diff i was thinking) so i look and there was a tag that sai d "limited slip gear oil, etc" does this mean i have a clutch type lsd??:

Sports did not come with a LSD, however it is not unusual for an owner to swap out a GXL rear end that does have a LSD into a sport.
Your sport does not have power windows right???

my favourite method of determining lsd or not is the tried tested and true burnout patch evaluation method....hehehe
I would imagine that in this case its simply a worn out lsd....mostlikely if it has been swapped in - the diff has gone through at least 2 tours of duty - so more than likely its very worn.........I have had some people claim that their GXL must not have come with an LSD since their GXL couldn't burn both rear skins....however it was only because their diff was toast....

Almost any base/SE with the stock wheels/tires you can do that method and break both wheels loose yet they do not have a LSD

Then how come on my 88 Base without LSD (stock when I got it) left a nice patch in a parking lot one afternoon? Not patches. This was on the stock 14" "phone dial" wheels and all season's.
