subyrally Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 it might be hard to find a 3.9 lsd, i think all the lsd's on the old school cars were 3.7. the legacy might have come with a 3.9 ratio, but im not sure. ive hear that you can get the 3.7 and swap out the ring and pinion with a 3.9 ring and pinion to convert it top what you want, but im not positive on that, ive never had to try it. good luck with your search. also, where is your friend going? depending on where your friend is visiting, could determine the ease of finding the parts you want. some areaas have a larger amount of older subarus than others,. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone can help me to trace a rear 3.90 LSD to Leone/Loyale as soon as possible? Thanks, Gal. USA's a pretty big place. Where exactly? 200 bucks max around Seattle, Washington. There's a junk yard 6 blocks away from me that's Soob only. They ALWAYS have one or more laying around. YOu could just take the innards out and bring them back home. Then swap them into your diff.

86BRATMAN Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 The turbo legacy is a 3.9 VLSD. Two different beasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DL92SW Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 From Israel It's hard for me to trace a rear 3.90 LSD. I saw somewhere a rear 3.90 LSD from a Loyale RX. Can anyone help me to trace a rear 3.90 LSD? Tell me where it is and I will say to my friend to pick it up in some way. I have to know that it will fit to my 1990 1.8 4WD Leone (Loyale) rear 3.90 axle. Thanks, Gal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(read Mick's write up in the repair manual. Qman did one too I think) Please read the peoples posts. This is very important information. We need to know where in the US your friend is going. All you need is the gears for the 3.9 LSD and they can be swapped into your rear diff. We have a write up in the USRM on this board just for this.

calebz Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I saw somewhere a rear 3.90 LSD from a Loyale RX. Thats just it - there is no such beast (at least from the factory) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DL92SW Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 My friend will stay for the next two weeks in Los Angeles and then one more week in Hawai. I know that there is a rear 3.90 LSD. My rear diff is a 3.90 ratio so how can I insert a rear 3.70 LSD to a rear 3.90 diff? In Israel it is very hard to find parts for 4WD Leone, so I will be glad to know what extra parts I need to insert the rear 3.70 LSD to my rear 3.90 diff. Thanks, Gal.

86BRATMAN Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Here are two links to the USRM write ups for converting to an lsd. The first is text only, the second has pictures of what it should look like along the way. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49919 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=66430 Keep in mind for a true lsd 3.9 rear end this is the best option. In the US market we only recieved 3.7 lsds. EDIT::: Gah, beaten by a minute... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misledxcracker Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Good luck finding one in Los Angeles junkyards... The Datsun 510 boys sure seem to like the LSD's out here and they're spendy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezapar Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Here ya go, a pic of it exploded. Tell your friend to call while in LA. Maybe we can get it shipped to him over night or something. PM me for my phone #. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

testy Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Side note* Do you need a matching fron 3.90 if you go to a rear 3.90? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Side note* Do you need a matching fron 3.90 if you go to a rear 3.90? The reason you are converting the LSD to 3.90 is because 5spd D/R trannies are 3.90. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
