Getting the Wheeling Fever

What's the best way to tell if a Pajero has a limited slip rear diff (aside from jacking it up and checking)? I'm not sure if they all came with it or not.

Also, anyone ever drive their Pajero through the Rockies (BC, Alta)? How does the relatively small 2.5 handle the grades?

Thanks,
BH

look on the inside of the drivers side door jam for an orange sticker about 1/2 way up...it will all be in Japanese writing but that is the sticker telling if it has an LSD or not

the pajero works awesome crawling up hills...some pajeros (mine being one) came with factory 5.29 diff gears which makes crawling so incredibly easy. the VIN plate under the hood on the firewall tells what diff gears it has. I think most pajeros came with 4.88's or 4.62 gears.

I have 5.29s with a 5-speed and it kinda sucks on the highway, I can only do 105 MAX

I went from Calgary - Cranbrook - Sandpoint Idaho this summer and the truck did just fine in the mountains.
