    how to spot LSD on y60 / gq

    hi guys, new to the forum hailing from south america

    just got a 91 safari granroad, and have a couple of questions for you....
    inside the vehicle i see no switch for diff lock which should be close to the
    switch for the aerial i think, so, im looking for a foolproof (me) way to check
    if the diff is LSD or not, any help with that?

    thanks!

    It will be LSD if it hasn't got a locker (we're talking rear diff yeah)
    Look for a sticker LSD
    Failing that jack the rear up spin a wheel the opposite wheel should turn the same way if it's LSD

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    thanks that seems foolproof enough to me!!!
    is there a way to take a regular diff to remote locker that you know of? or does that necessarily entail changing the whole assembly and housing?
