Place the whole vehicle in a lifter that mounts on vehicle's chassis. Place in drive while engine is running. Try to prevent one rear wheel from turning by any metal or rubber object from the tires. If LSD is in place, tires should not come to a halt and still continue spinning the the same direction for both tires.

An easier way to check if your diffs are equipt with LSD mechanism is to check the diff housing for any warning label with regards to the oil used.

standard ang LSD on all new expeditions.

According to my friend who owns most of the cars being compared here, eto ang comparison niya sa ride n comfort from the worst to best -- Safari 2003, Trooper 02, Expedition 03 and the best daw is the Tahoe 02.
Yung Old Expedition daw and the new one almost same lang daw, very minimal lang difference sa mileage and ride comfort.

Sir boybi, agree ka ba na mas masarap sakyan ang trooper than the patrol?

**kiper** · October 31st, 2003 03:21 AM

IFS na ang trooper diba? matagtag talaga ang patrol.

tingin ko maganda talaga ang tahoe..

buti naman may lsd, may konting peace of mind kahit hindi 4x4.

sir ungas
hinanap ko yung warning di ko makita. pag 4 wheeel independent suspension di ko na alam saan yung diff housing. wala yung bilog sa gitna between the 2 wheels. meron pa po ba simpler way malaman?

Your diffs will still have oils in it, look for the drain or filler plug. A warning label should be near those plugs.

yup, mas comfortable ang trooper kesa patrol. pero malakas ang body roll ng trooper, kakatakot mag overtake at high speeds.

I've been reading threads of the expe in the US and seems lots of problem sa LS after 3K to 6K mileage.

www.ford-truck.com

kaya for 2004 models ng expe sa US inalis na yun LS as standard ginawang optional na due to the problems they have.

2nd quarter this year lalabas na dito yun EDDIE BAUER with 5.4L engine.
