Default Kaaz Diff... need some help with it

Ive got a KAAZ diff that the guy said locks up in turns. Im not really familiar with one way and 2 way LSD's. Ive had it for years now. Never really ventured into researching it. Its from a cable LS trans. Is there anyway to even identify wether or not its a KAAZ?

take a pic would help ALOT.

A Kaaz or other clutch style LSD can lead to a push under power coming of the apex of a corner.

I loved my Kaaz.....till I broke it

No OEM spedo gear, the grooves are in the LSD case. The FD ring gear is mounted with right hand bolts. Looks like a kazz to me.

Holy cow man! How did you see the right hand threaded bolts? I thought it was rather unusual that they werent reverse thread. Kudos to you sir!

Now that youve proven how smart you are.... Why would this LSD seem to be locking up at all times on the customer? Will this diff only work in a cable trans?
