don't know if an LSD would really help. I've got one on my tin top, and i'd rather do without sometimes. when it rains all it does is make both back wheels spin and there's no grip at all. any different axles available to you? did Lada have any different axle ratios?

edit: or don't pull away with full throttle?

Angle top links to use torque reaction to push axle down.
You can use an esky diff with the lada axles and housing for more ratios, will require a 3mm spacer made up for between the housing and head.
Have the spider gears shimmed up to load the side gears more, creates resistance for the spider gears to turn, el-cheapo LSD but works well on such a light car.
