gear ratio is in glove box. to tell if you have and open rear or LSD one
easy way is spin the tires! if you leave two marks then you have an LSD.
ok just jack up the rear and manualy turn one of the tires. if the other
spins the oposite direction then it's open if they spin the same than it's
an LSD (or locker in my case).

How do you determine if you have "sure grip" unlimited slip
differential? I
have crawled under the rear diff and found that it is a 10 bolt which I
think I read in the FSM that this means it is a unlimited slip, but how
do I
know what gear ratio the rear end has. I know my dart had an 8 1/4
limited
slip. One of the changes wish could have made.
