Yes 2 tires spinning is lsd, and the tag is under your hood on the firewall, I forgot that they did not put the stickers in until 1989, it's a big metal tag, you can't miss it.

Just lift your rear end up and spin the back wheels if they both spin in the same direction you have lsd. If you spin them and they go seperate ways then you don't have lsd. It also says on the differential LSD oil only which means you have an LSD.

I don't know of any other place on the car other that the door jam and on the rearend itself. I remember seeing somewhere in my forum travels that one guy found his sticker on the inside of the car in the hatch area, but if memory serves me correct it was under the interior pannels, I cannot say if that is where the factory put it or if someone just moved it there because they painted it or something. What gear are you in at 75 mph and what rpm are you at? Tell me that and I might be able to tell you what you have for a gear ratio. It's really pretty simple, if you are doing 75 in 5th gear and are at 4,000 rmp or so you have low gears, if you are only at 2,500rpm or so then you have high gears or long gears as some people call them.

could someone explain this too me. why, in the same gear and at the same speed, do "low" gears have higher rpms, and "high" gears have lower rpms?

maybe i can help

faster while the higher gears have a bigger circumference, hence a longer rotation bcuz the lower gears needs to rotate more to produce the same amount of power as the higher gear does the higher gears puts out enough power so it does not need to rotate any faster rpm = rotation per minute im not making you sound stupid, but look at it this way you got the lower gears as a , small guy , really quick but no muscle then you got the higher gears, big guy, muscular, but no speed to push a 3600 lbs object the smaller guy needs to work more harder than the muscular guy i did my best to explain that, may not have the proper terms but, i think it works, if not, oh well i gave it my best shot hopefully it helps
