Not true...AFAIK, All 2WD twin cam Sierras had rear discs and the same bolt on drive shafts as the 4x4s, but they didn't have LSDs...guess who found that out the expensive way...

I think the only 2WD Sierra to have the LSD as standard was the Cosworth; and that's a 7.5" Diff as opposed to the usual Sierra 7" unit. I believe that LSD was an option on the early XR4i's?
