WTB :: Small LSD, Possibly Open Diff.

GormzZ · Post by **GormzZ** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 10:55 am

Alright guys.. i've been doing my fair share of looking around and i don't exactly live in a town where there could be alot of starion owners or even wreckers with one starion... So i need to buy one from down south it seems... Is there ANYONE in Australia who has a Small LSD laying around?

Also thinking about looking into a open differential also if the price is damn cheap as a spare to muck around on. IF you know of someone that has one then please tell them to look here at this thread.. I really need to get the ball moving on my car and this is one of the key things i need to sort out.

thanks in advance and i hope to see some replys!!

hmmm got any pics redzone to post here?

still on lookout for preferrably a l.s.d but a open diff also welded would be a better option.. should've mentioned this earlier also. but at this point l.s.d's are looking near to non existent

If you're willing to spend the extra $100 get a welded centre for now and wait until you find a cheap LSD. Youll have plenty of fun with it and when you get a LSD youll realize how much better it is :D

nahh i wanted to see the welds redzone. lol fair enough then mate.

yeah very true niss720, basically would like a welded diff and lsd as my options so if i wanted a bit more slide or ease on the track i could use the welded diff.

US centres will probably all be for large diffs. From what I know, small lsd's are as rare as rocking horse poop. Unelss you can just buy a centre and transplant your crown wheel onto it, not sure if anybody has done that here, or if it can be done for that matter.

small lsds are as rare in the usa as they are here, buy a big diff & torque tube from an 86/87 widey, like i've been telling you for the last 3 months

4 bolt big diff = diff housing/centre & torque tube

6 bolt big diff = whole rear driveline

ahh yes. the 4bolt was what i was referring to in regards from the U.S.. That is still becoming a issue to find. Unless someone knows of where/someone i can get it from?

Yes, it can be done. I got an LSD centre put into an open diff housing, using the open diff's pinion and crownwheel. It has to be properly shimmed up though. Only reason I got it done was because I broke the LSD's pinion, it was sloppy and I gave it too much curry. :D
