seen a 4x4 estate in the local scrappers, and have some questions:

1, was the LSD fitted to all 4x4 sierras?

2, how do i check if an LSD diff is ok?

3, if i'm removing it of the car, whats a fair price including drive shafts?

4, do the drive shafts fit into the drum brakes (which i have sat arround in mid re-conditioning), or will i need to go whole hog and take the rear hubs, brake setup, handbrake lever etc?

3) local breaker to me wants 40 for dif,shafts discs and calipers no real market they just go the crusher if they kept every lsd on the off chance some-one wanted it you'd have them piled up shame really but thats life
4)concensus seems to be you need the lot
I'm in the same boat my mk indy is set up for drums
and then I came across a lsd and thought everythink would change over no chance

I think the drums would fit but no guarantees. Why would you want to anyway? Discs all the way!!

The drive shafts are different on the LSD/rear disc cars, not sure if the drum brake drive shafts will fit, you will need to check the flanges are the same and the driveshaft lengths will be unaltered. If you do change to rear disc check your rear uprights will be OK, I know MK supply different uprights for rear disc set up.

A quick check to see if diff is LSD is to turn the diff input shaft and make sure both output drive shafts turn together in the same direction. I would say £50-£70 is fair if he removes from the car and it's in good condition.

I don't think the shafts will fit the diff but I think the drums will fit the disc shafts.

Turn one wheel (with the prop still on and in gear) - if the other wheel flicks the opposite way then turns the same way it's LSD, if it turns the opposite way all the time it's 'normal'
