Depends on the LSD size.

Pajero rear diffs are 9" and larger. Pajero front diffs are 7.5" (some say 7.25"?) and 8". Do you see the issue?

Mitsubishi did install suitably sized LSD centres in Starions. Unfortunately, there's still a not insignificant following of early Mitsubishi road cars creating a demand for these, so they're not easy to find for sticking in a Pajero.

mmmm sounds like a no then

fit a lokka? and why would you want an lsd in the front?

It was a popular concept before custom detroits were developed, and then came the air locker for the Pajero front. These days, I think it's still a reasonable performance improvement if you can find an LSD centre at a low enough price.

Better than an open diff, doesn't have some of the downsides of a lokka, not as expensive as an air locker, does have the advantage of "always on" - you don't need to think about "should I turn it on, or shouldn't I?"

I think for Patrols, where centres from early Navaras (?) can be bolted in relatively cheaply and easily, they're a little more common. For Mitsubishis, given the (lack of) availability of centres, it's not something too many will ever do - why fit a hard to find LSD if a cheap autolocker can be installed for less?

I was just thinking about it cause i have a spare LSD sitting around .... other wise i wouldnt've even asked
