  Actually, you could have a limited slip and still have the wheels turn 
opposite directions while performing the "jack it up and spin one 
wheel" trick. I have tried this on the limited slip in my car and they 
will on occasion go opposite directions so the best way to check with 
the rear end jacked up is to put the car in neutral and turn the drive 
shaft by hand. If both wheels are spinning the same direction, then you 
have a limited slip.
