4wd or NOT, 2wd, but 4wd both ends match.
well , not wanting to pulled cover off and have GL5 lube all over
or #2 googling for all Jeep axle codes. (your call)
there is no CHEVY RPO code build list\
#3you call jeep dealer give VIN and he tells build list to you.

or the tests. #4
put car in 2wd, but one rear tire on ICE or wet grass
then move forward quick. (gas pedal

if both tires spin car moves is Positration clutch packed rear gear set.(or lockers of many kinds)
if limited slip 4 gears only then one tire on grass /ice only spins fast and car does not.
there answered all 4 ways.

ok way #5, rear tires off ground both, ON JACKS STAnds safe.
in neutral 4wd box or. if not 4wd tranny in neutral.
hand spin 1 tire and both turn same direction for locker.
if it 1 spins backwards the axle is open (limited slip)
open is 4 gears (side+ spider)
Lockers have a locker or clutch pack just like seen in the A./T BOX.

lockers have vast names. but all lock up some way.
open axles means sans/locks.
I love lockers. saved my bacon vast times. even pulling super heavy boats out of the ramp, and zero slip. 2 tires spin is JOY.
even 2wd drive with a locker is a joy. on snow and ice too.
1 wheel drive is for squids.

drain the fluid and refill with limited slip gear oil, add one bottle of friction modifier, ( this is very important) the noise is the clutches sticking.

You need to remove all the skrews from the door. Normaly there is one in the handle of the door, one behind the in door lach handel and one under the bump out for the arm rest on the door. Than you need to take a flat head skrew driver slowly priying the panel off. There are plastic clips on the backside of the panel it is ok if you brake a few.

Is this car equipped with a limited slip differential as standard?

easiest way is to drive it briskly on a rainy slippery surface, if you feel one tire skidding and the other one does nothing then its NOT a limited slip differential , but yes if you know the vehicle vin number it can be decoded as well from there , just google vin ident for your make and model you should see a vin# decoder for it

Why is there a loud clunking noise from the rear differential?

I would take the cover of and have a look. If it clunks as you are turning maybe you have lost the oil and the limited slip is binding up. If it is a broken tooth at least you can remove the metal.

Get a limited slip differential stopp slipping in reverse?

limited slip differentials are so designed that when one axle looses traction the pressure is applied through the side gears to lock up diff so that both wheels have to turn. If it slips in reverse then in will slip going forward . I would be inclined to look for a reverse gear problem in the gear box/ transmission. If it is an auto check for reverse solenoid operation.

I need to change my rear differential, do I need eny special tools and is there a online shop manual. I have a floating rear end and I want to install a limited slip ,can this be done. I already perchased...

Changing the differential is not an easy job especially if you've never done one before. Guessing you are keeping your same ring/pinion.
You have to set the backlash with a dial indicator. The pinion has to be meshed with the ring gear at the proper depth. It's a pretty involved process.
See if there's a 4x4 shop near you. They may be more friendly to your ideas. Mudders swap differentials all the time.
