#342441 Second hand or KAAZ rear LSD?

Posted by chez00 on 06 February 2019 - 10:23 PM

The stock LSD is junk. The ductile cast iron housing stretches and causes backlash/runout issues; the carrier bearing journals fret and allow the carrier bearings to spin, and the stock breakaway of 20-40Nm is pretty tame and drops off quickly with spirited use. There is no comparison between a proper LSD and the OEM unit.

The new gen ATS billet chromoly bodies are much better than their earlier models. I now consider the ATS carbon hybrid range to be the best in the Mitsubishi range. Cusco and Kaaz are excellent too, just a little more likely to clunk and bang even when bedded in unless the clutch pack is reshuffled away from 100% factory setting.




#342435 New to the forum - gearbox and diff builder

Posted by chez00 on 05 February 2019 - 01:59 AM

Hi everyone,

 

I'm new to the forum.

 

I own a gearbox workshop in Adelaide, SA. We specialise a lot in Evo drivetrain repairs and upgrades.

I'm here to learn and also happy to chip in on some technical details if I can help. Mainly here to gather and share info on GVR-4 and early Evos, as two of my brothers are currently building these.

 

Cheers,

Sam
