Look on the plate on the bulhead,most surfs are 4 pinion, not seen one that wasn't, the last number of your axle code will 2, 4 or 5.

2 is 2 pinion, 4 is 4 pinion and 5 is 4 pinion LSD.

Open Diff Code is G244
LSD Code is G245

There's always a Payback .... Don't know where n don't know when tho !!!!

.......or, take a drive out into the countryside, pull over onto the side of the road so that one rear wheel is on the grass/mud and the other on the dry road. Hoof it and if you pull away OK then you've got a LSD. If the truck struggles to move i.e. the wheel thats on the grass/mud just spins, no LSD.

just use lsdoil anyway, that way u should have no probs, lsd oil will not screw your difs if they aint and if they are , bonus!

The lesson for today is, 'Let the search button show you the way'.
