How can I tell in there is a LSD in this 99' dakota at the junk yard. Is there a code in the clove box or on the axle somewhere? Or would the VIN tell me? The truck is on blocks, and I spun the drive wheel and the other wheel turned a little in the opisite direction I think. Any help would be appreciated. It's a 1999 sport Dakota with V6.

If it did what you said, I believe that's how you prove it does not have LSD. From what I read a while back, in the glove compartment it lists some of the specs on the truck and that's where it will list if the truck has limited slip or not.

Yes the glove and alot of other areas can tell you if that truck was "originally" equiped with L/S but.....you have to remeber that it could have been changed.

If your able, jack the rear up and turn a drum/tire/rim as you did, if both drums/tires/rims turn in the same direction than your 99% sure its a L/S.
Still wont account for any wear to the clutches though, but at least you know what it is.
