If you spin the rear wheel (car jacked up of course) and the wheel on the other side spins the opposite direction, is that just how all of them work, or is that only if there is a limited slip in there???

That is an open diff, on a lsd both wheels will spin in the same direction.

That is a common 'open' style differential. An LSD or 'Posi' style would have both wheels turn in the SAME directions be it forward or reverse when rotated by hand with the car on jacks. |
