edinlexusV8 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Hi guys, Been doing some work on my diff to swap the centre with a torsen LSD from a supra. I put up this thread to update you all about this and possibly get some advice if I get stuck. But I am stuck at step 14 SA100 - 14. Check Minimum Backlash. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Started off by pulling the diff out. The one highlighted in yellow is the one I bought for this conversion. It is a post 1997 Supra TT diff centre which is 8" (same as the soarer diff centre). As I will be using the same crown wheel and the pinion, the teeth being 47 and 12 respectively the final gear ratio would remain the same as 47/12 = 3.917 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinlexusV8 Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 Now coming to ste14 in the tutorial, I need to do shimming and find the right shim to fit in the LSD so that there will be minimum backlash. (SA100 - 14. Check Minimum Backlash) No idea how to get this done??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Measuring the backlash with the guage Diff rebuild is complete and is ready to go back onto the car /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
