LSD conversion Question

Featured Replies

I'm almost done with my 3.7-3.9 LSD conversion. I'm ready to install the LSD inners into the open diff case. I know I need to ground down something in the case. I'm not quite sure what I need to grind. Are the circled tabs what needs to be removed? I just want to check before I do something stupid.

I need to bump this up real quick. Im gonna start on it when I get back from the dealership with my new seals.

 

Hey mods. This should be attached to the LSD thread.. my bad sorry. LSD Thread

Hey Jeremy,

 

 

Those are the spots. You really only need to do one side for clearance. If you insert the LSD unit you will see where to grind. You may hit the holes without any ill-effects. The bolts will seal it up just fine. As a matter of fact the LSD case enters the holes somewhat also.

 

Good luck.

wait, you've got the right spots circled, and Ken's right about only needing to grind on one side (the right side in the pic) but I wonder if you mean grinding on the stub holes on the side? that's what came to mind first, and you actually need only to grind a little off of two spots on the inside of the main opening. like ken said, if you start inserting the chunk, you will see where it rubs. i didn't want you to ruin the diff case :)

Yeah the inside of the case.. not the stubs. Guess if I "F" it up I have a few more diffs laying around! :lol:
