Not that I know of.

 

The carrier for a LS is is set up way different and there is too few of them made for a manufacurer to tool up to fit make a lunch box to them. ESP when you consider the easy of attaining and the vast numbers of open carrier's.

 

With the design of fact LS and the clutches involved, it dosen't lend itself to the design.

Well i spent an hour and a half on the phone with jeep and no one can tell me if i have lsd or open diff. WTF?

[89eliminator]

an easy way to figure that out is to jack up the rear end and spin the tires. if they both spin the same direction, you have an lsd, it they spin opposite directions, then you have an open diff.

also if it hasent been tamperd with. There will be a tag that says lds fluid. You can also just pull the rear cover.

With both rear tires off the ground and tranny in neutral. As long as there is some grip left in it, both tires will spin in the same direction, when turned.

 

OR as suggested, pull pan and have a look. If you don't know what your looking at snap a pic and post it, we will tell you what you got!!!!

 

Unsure why the difficulty with the dealer... They should be able to get the info as to what was on that vehicle when it left the factory. Directly from the vin number or so I thought.....

 

If you get on it a bit in a turn, does the OUTSIDE tire chirp? If you where to, cramp the wheel and stomp the gas pedal, the inside wheel would likely break loose with an open diff. If that same vehicle had a LS you should also be able to get the OUTSIDE tire to spin as well.
