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

For the sake of not making up a new thread, Ill just post here. I did this some time back and the wheels spun in opposite directions. But when I do a powerbrake or burnout I leave 2 tire marks. This is a ZJ, with 242 transfer case. Could I possibly have a LSD? Would the front have LSD as well?

How about just power braking and checking the track?

I don't think all came with limited slip either.

I was pulling a trailer through a muddy field and throwing rooster tails from each wheel. That was fun (to clean later

)
