    Default Is this a lsd center??

    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone know if this is a lsd diff center. its from e52 aw11 gearbox.

    Ive got one the same installed in my curent car but it doesnt seem to work like a lsd.
    ive tried testing it, like jacking up the car and turning one wheel while the other is on the ground in gear, still turns.

    can't really tell by the photos, but it doesn look like an LSD to me, what series is it?

    i can't see any clutch plates, fluid devices or TorSen gears.

    remember a worn out LSD will operate like an open diff,

    My money is on a open center, the spider gears give it away. Can't see any form of clutch pack or torsen style gearset.

    welding a diff is nothing to be ashamed of!
