hi,
you need to find the id tag which tells you the ratio of the diff. if it is marked with an S then a number say 3.8, this means it's an lsd with a gear ratio of 3.8.
if it's an lsd and in good condition it's worth about £150/200.
hope this helps.

There will be a thin metal tag hanging down from one of the bolts, which if is an LSD will have an 'S' and the ratio eg S3.91:1. An LSD in good nick is worth £200+ lucky bugger.

If it's just under 4 turn's then i'd say you have a 3.91 ratio. If when you turn one output shaft the other side turn's the same way, you have a 3.91 LSD which are found on MTech II Sport'sRodderz wrote:How do I tell which lsd I have?? if I mark it up and rotate the input shaft it seems to be about 3.8 turns....ish!!!
