Sierra LSD again
mickebo - 6/9/08 at 03:20 PM
Looked around here for the possibility to use non LSD driveshaft on my "new" LSD.
Found no real solution.
I have a non LSD on the car, it´s a 3,62 from a 2,0DOCH -92 Sierra, got a 3,62 LSD from a Sierra Cossie ca -91. Got extra shafts from 2,DOCH but no
Cossie ones.
Same diameter and splines inside the diff but different length - no fit!
Found out that there are 25 splines on a non LSD shaft (the shaft not joint) and 25 splines inside a Granada/Scorpio inner/outer joint. And they
fitted perfectly!
Just bought 1 used Scorpio shaft cause inner and outer joint is the same one.
Now I had 2 Driveshafts with outer tripodjoints and screwed inner joints. And it seems all lengths are ok.
Winter project will be to fit the LSD without removing driveshafts from my new wheelbearings, just to change the innerjoints.

Think I will use the spring from the tripod to position the joint

are you from sweden ?
whats the diameter and spline count in the diff - is it 25 ?
youve got a 7.5inch diff ,how many bolts does teh crownwheel bolt to the diff housing with ?
do you have a dimension from the crownwheel face to the bearing race ?

where are you based? I could be interested in your left over bits for my de-dion install. I'm having to have shafts made up and any spares in
case the job goes wrong would be appreciated.

Yes I´m in Sweden.
No it´s a 7inch diff.
To far MikeR?

well the big question was , if its a 10 blot CWP , it may be able to modify it to my volvo rear axle , altho that has 27 spline dana 30 .

10 blot CWP?
What Volvoaxel are you using?
You want to fit a Sierra LSDunit in your Volvoaxel?
Number of bolts and diam. of crownwheel?(maybe 7inch)
Number of splines into diff + diam.?
I don´t understand this:
"do you have a dimension from the crownwheel face to the bearing race ?"
I´ll goto my workshop tomorrow and check it, i´ll be back.

Look in my photoarchive, rearendbook might be some tips.
Why did you believe I was Swedish?
