Confusion limited slip diff, manual says it is. LS on Mobil1 bottle.

[Seasparrow]

Everything opinion I have ever heard when people asked about limited slip and which lube oil to use was, "we don't have limited slip", but here is the manual : I am getting ready to change diff oil so I guess the old stand by Mobil 1 LS will have the LSD additive. I am guessing that is what the LS stands for right ?? There isn't a non LS Mobil 1 75W90 made is there ??


P.S. PepBoys has 20% off until 7-29 $ 10.39 1 Qt.

Your “limited slip” is your CENTER DIFFERENTIAL within TRANSFER CASE...NOT your axle differential. Your center diff is a TORSEN CENTER DIFF. Your axle traction is based on ABS system braking individual slipping wheels...aka ATRAC.
