Which wasn't bad...
Ah right on. Everyone keeps telling me about how lsd is worthless if you're running anything larger than 31s so I was surprised to hear you even wanted it lol

No offense but there's a lot of online off-roaders on the forums,
I dont mean to disrespect anyone who feels a certain way and I haven't experienced one to say it works but it's easier/cheaper to rebuild clutch packs compared to A full case lsd incase it breaks...
Although my original main plan is to run a full case locker out back and a Volvo lsd up front
But when I wanted to save the 4.10 amc 20 for another project I planned front and rear lsd for a daily...

Yeah that's true. I think the consensus is more taken out of context than anything. If your tires are both going to maintain contact with the ground, it seems as though the LSD is fine... but if you're going to be lifting tires, the LSD won't cut it - unless you're going to do some fancy e-brake finagling.

As of now, I'm just planning on filling mine with new fluid, LSD additive, and running it. If the clutch packs are good, GREAT! If they're bad, well it's still better than a D35!

Yup. My LSD works great (still haven't found that dragon) but, yes, you do have to heel-toe sometimes to "lock" it up. Was cutting firebreaks/trails down here in the Everglades all weekend.
