ok next dumb question

im used to how/what happens with an open diff with one wheel up
what am i looking for in this case ?

UKJeeper:
You will be looking for the other wheel to rotate in the opposite direction (weird but true) when you hand turn a wheel. Or get a mate to hold a wheel while you turn the other one, his one should also rotate. If it does these, then the limited slip diff is working.

The clutch plates in these factory LSD's do wear out, but are relatively easy to overhaul.

I also have an M reg Cherokee, and the LSD is working fine. I think all the UK spec 4.0 Cherokees had an LSD as standard.

Snake110:
right ill be checking that today then
cheers

Nope! :roll:   As I mentioned above, post facelift ('97 on) 4.0 Cherokees do not have a LSD.
