I have a HZJ 79 series pickup (1HZ diesel) with back limited slip differential. Coming into town on the highway I lost all power to the diff. No bang or ping or anything - just wouldn't transfer power to the wheels. Had to disconnect back drive shaft and drive using 4WD to front diff only. Oil was coming out from right oil seal on back diff. And all very hot. Squealing when I tried to get power to back diff but no metallic sounds. Any ideas? Only way to move again was to remove back diff. Would move in neutral but not under power.
anybody had this before with a limited slip? Any ideas? Please copy replies to my email:

As I'm about to pull it apart in the morning. I am using Castrol LSD oil, no additive. GL5 75-90W.
I am in Mexico and now stuck for parts if it's cactus.
