How can I tell if I have an LSD in what I pretty sure is an 8.25 without opening up the diff? If I don't have a limited slip, is it a true posi trac??? When I'm on grass or sand, and I floor it or power brake to get the rear to break loose, both wheels spin to dig a hole until the pumpkin in on the ground. However, when turning in full lock in either direction, I still cant hear the rear either of the tires dragging.
96 Country, HO, AW4, NP231, D30 front, 8.25 rear, 3in RC lift, 31x10.5 on Crager 15x8 ATs
Also, my rear differential cover only has a rubber plug in it, where all others have had a threaded fill plug? Is this normal or a sign or something sketchy the PO didn't fill me in on?

I'm really only diving into this because we've had some deep water around here lately. The other day I was parked on a pretty steep incline and there was a tiny bit of seepage coming from out side of that little plug. It wasn't quite water but it wasn't quite diff fluid either. So I know it's time to replace the fluid and that little plug and maybe find where the breather tube terminates and check out it's condition.
Also is this what they mean when they refer to a "corporate" rear end?
