    Could I have gotten out of this mud pit? I put it in 4lo and was rocking back and forth a little but my back right tire would not spin. Is this bc of LSD couldn't give enough power to the back right tire? Bc I believe if I had locker I would have gotten out of the mud pit.

    A locker is unreal. You would have walked out of there at an idle.

    Probably no. Looks like you have quite a pile of soft mud built up around your tires to try to overcome.... gonna be hard without some external help.

    Probably a 12" lift and MTs 44s woulda helped :D

    On an open diff, partially engage the parking brake, that would allow power to go to the wheel with the most grip.
