Limited slip question...

[IAMCDN]

Hey all. I recently bought a 94 XLT 4x4 with the LS diffI have a couple weeks on the dealer warranty and I want to get everything fixed that needs it. The truck has 160,000kms on it, so I figured the limited slip would probably need to be rebuilt. How do you tell if it is working properly. I put one back tire on ice and the other on pavement, then spun the tires, and the one on ice spun freely, and the other did not grab at all. I assume this means it is not working, right?

Thanks for any info on this.

P.S. Went ice fishing this weekend and there is about a foot and a half of snow on the lake...the Explorer performed great...drove around at will. Even helped pull out a Blazer!!!

Later.

Petersen's Off Road did a factory Trac-Loc rebuild a couple months ago. I think they even added additional clutches to firm it up a bit. I'll try to look up the article and post details.
