Re: Do I have LSD?
I was told not to... b/c that messes up the tranny (I b/l it has something to do with the differential, that's why I said that)

Re: Do I have LSD?
but if the transmission is in neutral, then nothing adverse should happen. for example, say you're cruising down the highway and suddenly you randomly (for the purpose of testing your differential) decide just to slip it into neutral? i've done this many times on autos and manuals. NOTHING happens. the car continues to roll forward. despite what people 'hear' or what they are 'told', most of the time it doesn't have much to back it up in principle or theory.
i'm almost 100% positive that towing a car that's in neutral on its drive wheels is perfectly fine.

Re: Do I have LSD?
I just heard that on the open differential, the way one wheel spins one way, the other opposite will damage something... I don't recall exactly how it works... but when the worm gears connected to the engine spin... it causes both wheels to spin one way... but power applied to one side of the differential (i.e. spinning one wheel) causes it to spin opposites... IDK ... just a speculation
