I figured it was just the limited slip slipping or one of the tires scuffing but was told that it isn't supposed to do that. I don't know when the fluid was last changed on it. Any info on this? 1989 Montero 4dr V6 3.0l Re: LSD noise?

In a turn, the outer wheel has to make up more distance on the outside radius, and the torque spread through the LSD transfers a similar rotation to the inside tire = scuff, chirp, etc. Happens all the time with my Raider. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> 1987 Raider - Roxy 1988 Mighty Max 2.6L Turbo - Pearl 1997 Mountaineer V8 - Freddy 2000 Excursion V10 - Freya Re: LSD noise?

Those vibrations mean that the LSD is working properly. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> 1989 Mitsubishi Montero LWB, Superwinch Manual Hubs Re: LSD noise?
