Both wheels jacked up. With either an LSD or a locked (welded) diff, both
wheels should only spin in the same direction. If they spin in reverse
directions the diff is "open" ie no LSD.
Dont jack up one wheel and drop the clutch! If you do have an LSD or locked
diff, the wheel on the ground will drive your car off the jack!
