Bearings in LSD?

Anyone know if there are any grease packed bearings in an FD Torsen LSD?

Are the carrier bearings grease packed?

Thanks
Ben

the pinion and carrier bearings are that style but you do not pack them like a wheel bearing if that is what you are wondering

Usually there aren't any grease packed bearing in a diff unit as the oil that you put in the rear diff case lubricates them. The main gear usually goes through the oil and picks it up or splashes it around so well that it goes into the bearings.

Thanks guys. I'm getting the unit cryo treated and I didn't want to damage the LSD or the carrier bearings.
