Default tranny lsd question

I sold a guy a ls tranny with a lsd diffrential, i got the tranny from a guy and never used it, I sold the tranny to a guy on here and he put it in his car and says it is not an lsd cause each wheel spins freely from eachother ( the diffrential is see through so I know it was a lsd.) any help on what he is talking about would gladly be appreciated
Thanks Shane

To my understanding a LSD is not ALWAYS on, It helps balance the power each wheel gets when under Load (a fair chunk at that), So while the front is up in the air (in the garage) the LSD would not be engaged.

It depends on the type of LSD it is. That's the n00b *** way of figure it out.

However I didn't know they made LSDs for the LS tranny.

If you can see through it, it's an LSD. Jacking it up and spinning wheels tells you exactly jack ****.
