Is this a factory LSD???
OK I re geared the 4 runner and someone had replaced the gears with 4:56's and the rear carrier has clutch plates and 4 gears internally on it. Buddy whos been doing 3rds for 15+ years said its a LSD and its stamped Toyota motor co on it.
What Im curious about is the plates inside look like friction plates.
Doesnt look like my old carrier in my other 4 runner either.
It came out of the 8" rear on a 94 4 Runner.

Should be VERY easy to test. Stick your fingers in and try to rotate that splined socket while holding the splined socket on the other side still.
Toyota never sold a North American truck with an LSD before 1995, but I have seen a 1990-1995 Hilux Surf with a white sticker saying LSD in red right by the fill cap on the rear diff. The would be a logical place to put the sticker too if you had to use LSD additive.
