How is an LSD installed?
How is an LSD installed?
Hey guys. Noob question. I couldn't find anything in the search.
I'm interested in an LSD and I noticed the Quaife on corksport's site. They don't have the install manual online, and I'm curious... how do you install that? Where does it go exactly? I assume inside the transmission... does it replace the existing differential?

Re: How is an LSD installed?
i don't know the proceedure...but it replaces the open diff. if it comes with a pinion gear(final drive ratio) then you should only have to pull a few clips on the inner axel's out for it to come out...nightfire wrote:Hey guys. Noob question. I couldn't find anything in the search.
