Default How do I know if I have LSD?

Going to do fluid change on my rear axle, manual says if I have LSD I need a Mopar LSD additive. Anyone know how to figure out whether or not I have a limited slip diff? Thanks.

Read the sticker in your glove box (under the manuals and stuff).

I can chirp the tires sometime in my 6... Its all depending on how the roads are lol. I think it also might depend on what kind of tires you have and what condition they are in. If you have good tires, it seems to me there would be more grab and less chirp haha.
