For Vehicles Equipped With Limited Slip Differential

FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL





a. Never apply driving force when RH or LH rear wheel only is touching the ground.
b. During service/rectification work never spin (race) the RH or LH rear wheel only such as with ON-The-Car type wheel balancer, both rear wheels must be off the ground.

HINT:
- In case of the above, due to the construction of the LSD the driving force is transmitted to the opposite wheel and therefore it is possible for the vehicle to start suddenly if only one rear wheel is off the ground. Furthermore it could result in component damage to the LSD due to the loads acting on it.
- Always raise both rear wheels off the ground and support the vehicle on suitable safety stand.
