Wipeout Posted December 24, 2003 Author Share Posted December 24, 2003 In the rear differential The part at the rear end of the drive shaft that the wheels bolt on to. Im sure someone has more technical info but that's the short version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 i have just bought a uk lsd for my car and was searching for info on what oil to use. found below chris w posted (check chris for latest price) think you need 1 or 2 liters hope it helps I now keep a goodly supply of what many consider the ultimate oil, Motul Gear 300. Suits both LSD and none LSD cars, fully synthetic, and, hard as I am to be impressed by oil claims, the grossly overstressed transaxle in my race car has had the crown wheel and pinion (axle) last 3 times as long between replacement with Motul oil than with the Castrol and Valvoline oils we used before in the `box. I sell it at 10.50 a litre, no VAT to pay. Details are at http://www.motul.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
