I believe there may have been a jap version with an lsd but not until the Sierra had been replaced or nearly replaced, never release in Oz. would have thought an lsd would spin the same regardless of which wheel was spun. Maybe your centre has an issue.

Correct. An LSD will make both wheels spin together the same dirrection. My brother has an LSD in the back of his chopped SWB. Works okay but its not a locker.
Known 2, im not sure whats happening there with your diff. If it was locked or LSD both wheels would spin the same way when you jacked it up and spun them, regardless of which dirrection or wheel you spun.

Maybe one of the side gears is a bit munted...

yeh its got me and the mechanics confused.
will have to pull it apart soon anyway, theres a masive amount of backlash. would be nice if it was some weird lsd.
