    Default How do I know what type of diff centre i have?

    I recently purchased a jap diff expecting it to have a LSD. I have pulled it apart and inspected the centre. I expected to see some markings on it but nothing. How do I know what center I have? Is it LSD? What brand? what type?

    I've attached some pics below. tell me what you think.....

    LSD, looks like a TRD unit.

    Yeah, the markings on the adjuster are a sign that someone didn't have the proper tools to tighten them on reassembly.

    Get a photo of the windows on the center, and some one will chime in as to whether it is a 1, 1.5, 2 way looking at the ramp
