This LSD differential is in an Isuzu 1996 Trooper. It uses clutch packs.
Jacking up tires, turn one wheel, other turns in same direction which is good.
Holding one wheel from spinning and turning other wheel takes about 10 pounds of force.
Driving with one wheel on grass, other on wet pavement in the rain, the tire on grass spins, but it does drive back onto the road.
Driving on a loose gravel parking lot, both rear tires spin the same amount when gassing it, would an open differential also do that?
When driving Trooper up on 4 metal portable car ramps to work on it, each wheel has a ramp, the right rear wheel spins and it has a hard time getting up, in 4wd it gets up these 4 ramps no problems.
So are the clutch plates worn and not giving enough torque to the non slipping wheel?
