a front drive LSD is the same as a rear drive one in terms of function, right?

It's not worth the effort bro... trust me. Especially with an almost guaranteed one wheel wonder it's gonna get you no where.

oh I know, I wouldn't want to try to install/have one installed, too much effort on FWD cars as opposed to RWD. I was just curious.

6mt only...and LSD is an LSD..same concept, same function...some try and make them better than others..... you're not gonna be spinning anything with an AT, unless, rain, snow, or 500hp

I've noticed that my auto, when moderate throttle is applied with a quarter turn of the wheel does churp the inner wheel a little bit, but I also have winter tires on the car right now

would it be possible to use the one from the m/t... like say if you were doing a m/t swap on an a/t... i know there two diferent parts of the car but just trying to see how logical it would be because im sure a m/t swap owner would want the lsd to go along?...
