Since the ring gear and LSD are still in place just lay the rear down on its side and check the load.

I don't have one myself, but I'll check with a couple of friends who might have one. Thanks so far!

It looks like I can only get one with ft lb scale. But if I'm correct 12-20 inch pound equals 1-1,6 ft lb.

A ft/lb scale torque wrench is not going to be accurate in the 1-2 ft/lb range. Just get a Harbor Freight 1/4 inch drive inch/lb torque wrench. They are on sale all the time for like $20. Even if its not the most accurate tool on earth it will be way better than trying to measure 1.6 ft/lb with ft/lb scale wrench.

But I'm in Norway, so I don't have a Harbor freight store to visit... I also can't find any other wrench of that type with a shorter/more accurate scale... :/

A little to far away for me to stop by to help you out lol. If you can make a video of you turning the rear so I can hear how it sounds and I can see how much effort you use to turn the rear.

Yeah, it's probably a bit too far. It's just 30 minutes to the main airport though, so I can pick you up! I'll try to make a little video when I get back this weekend! (The S occupy my parents garage at the moment )

Sounds good, put one of the stub axles in the LSD and turn it, I want to see how the LSD turns as well.
