I'm the Italian owner of a 2nd hand Raw Striker.
I need to know what diff is on my car since I want to install a lsd unit...I thought it was an Escort english axle but I know that unit mounts 16 or
22 teeth half shaft while my shafts have 26 teeth...Could it be a Sierra 7 inch?
A picture would help...

^ yep, could be lots of things
the english and sierra diffs are VERY different too, should be easy to tell the difference between those two

sierra is a self contained diff only for irs. it sounds like you have a live axle?
My striker is IRS indeed.
I will posto some pictures ASAP

You have a Sierra diff.
ratios are 3.14 (very rare), 3.38 (rare), 3.62 (common) and 3.92 (common).
IIRC LSDs are 3.62 generally.
Worth checking as a change of ratio will alter acceleration and top speed
thanks a lot
