refurbing a LSD
mads - 1/9/08 at 01:01 PM

looking to get a LSD for the Indy so need 7" and i assume it is the bolt-on type as having rear discs?

Just wondered is it better to buy a second hand LSD off fleabay and get it refurbed and if so, where can I get it done from?
or is it cheaper to just buy a "reconditioned as new" one? again, where can i get it from?

Hi,

I've had a few diffs and they have all been fine - I paid around £70ish for an LSD.

You could save up and get a Quaife for around £500+

Personally, I'd find a cheapish second hand diff and try it, the worst that can happen is you have an exchange unit

Cheers,

M

Phil Jones Engine Developments did a great job on rebuilding my 7" LSD, costs reasonable, nice small busines, bag of replaced bits.
