I have a Question about my 1996 Jeep Cherokee. im 16 an i couldn't figure out weather or not my jeep has a limited-slip diferential in it or not.

any answers are welcome and thanks for replying!!!

 

I think that all Jeeps came with "Limited Slip" Diff's from the factory. Couldn't really tell ya if you had an aftermarket Differential or not. The only way you could tell is, try to get it stuck...

There's some good info on this link, check it out...

go out and do like i would do (also 16) hold it to the floor in the snow/ dirt and see if both or just one spin.. do it straight on or going up a hill mine is limited front anf rear it suck..

 

Yep, tear up a gravel parking lot and check out the tracks afterwards.

 

hell thts wht id do but make sure its not urs lol do it to ur buddys or something lol

 

a rural gravel parking lot lol... I do it with mine all the time

 

y not sounds like the kinda funn tht i deff wanna have the high tail it out there lol but i kinda stand out in a white jeep lol the only one in town

 

How about just jacking the rear end up and spinning one tire? If they both spin the same direction, you have limited slip. If one spins opposite the other, you have open diffs.

Not all jeeps have limited slip differentials, mine are both open.

 

ohh i think tht crazyxj and i were going more for the fun factor..LOL
