Default Diff Picture request

Has anyone got a picture of a Cossy diff with the rear plate removed?
Or a picture of the diff unit out of the casing?

Thanks

the easiest way to tell if its a slipper is to hold one of the shaft joints and turn the prop joint. if both sides try to turn the same way then its a slipper

if its a 2wd one, it should have 3.64 stamped in it, that ratio was cossie only i think?

you will only see the planet (which usually smash) and sun gears

the LSD part is enclosed in the crownwheel end somewhere.

if the planet gears are broken, both sides will not turn...

planets are only a tenner each from ford!

I know how to check, and these seem to turn both outputs the same way, but the last one I fitted just spins inside wheel when power is added. Thats why I was after a picture out of the casing aswell PLEASE
