Are you looking for a factory one? I was looking for one of these. I have a feeling that they dont exist. Ford LSD are bolt on only, but I may be wrong.

I was looking at an aftermarket LSD that then had better final ratio but then that costs more pennies.

I ended up doing the full drum to disc converstion cos couldn't. Find a push in lsd so had to convert to bolt on

most aftermarket LSD's can use push-in shafts though

Right so I've got 2 option convert to bolt on how hard is that?
Or
Keep look out for a aftermarket lsd.

Can the bolt on lsd just be used with push in shafts ?

or put a Quaife ATB Limited Slip Differential in a non LSD Sierra diff with push-in shafts?

all the bolt-on sierra hubs are the disc brake type so assuming thats not an issue and your rear uprights / de dion tube will accept the bolt-on hubs without mods then its just a case of swapping over the whole lot (hubs, shafts and brakes)

it is possible to mix and match a bit, but you'll find small issues like the different diameters of hubs and bearings etc

not unless you make hybrid shafts - but that will depend on you having the right type of push-in ones so that the bolt-on CV's will fit on the splines
these work, but the miss-match of CV types will cause them to wear out faster (not normally an issue for the miles most of our cars do)

even if your push-in shafts have the same splines as the LSD's bolt on stubs - the retention method is different and ford LSD's need one short and the other long (push-in one are both a medium length)
