quick question...cant find the answer...local junkyard has a j30 rear diff w/ the axels and whole subframe. however, there is no orange VLSD sticker on it... you think it could have come off? or do some J30's not have a VLSD, i was under the impression they all have it.

Just turn the wheels and see if they both turn in teh same direction and I believe they all come with LSD.

Or you can spin the input shaft on the diff itself to see if both axles spin.

Hope you know the J30 uprights are a direct bolt for S13 S14 with an added bonus of being 5 lug and the big brake upgrade in the rear is also a direct bolt on.

Yes. I don't recall if the ebrake is the same, but you can swap it too.
