Rear viscous limited slip differential
(LSD) (if equipped)
Never start the engine while a tire on one side
is jacked up, as the vehicle may move.
If one rear tire is spinning in mud, avoid con-
tinued spinning at high speed as this could ad-
versely affect the LSD.
If a different size rear tire is temporarily used
(as in an emergency), it will adversely affect the
UB7037BA
LSD. Always replace it with a regular size tire as
soon as possible.
The LSD provides optimum distribution of power ac-
cording to the difference in revolutions between the
right and left rear wheels that may be caused by cer-
tain driving conditions, thereby improving driving sta-
bility on snow-covered, muddy or other slippery roads.
