MSSLGECKO Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Just to make sure I don't miss anything, the only component out of a 3.7 LSD needed to convert an open 3.9 diff is the LSD Carrier, right? Also, is it always necessary to grind out the 3.9 housing to fit? Thanks, - Noah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbobdole Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 yes and no. YES All you need out of the LSD is the chunk... the carrier. No it is not always necessary to grind... but it helps.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSSLGECKO Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Will a dremel tool work to remove the excess housing material? If I don't have an LSD housing handy for comparison, will it be apparent where to grind out? Can I remove my rear differential w/out removing both axles?

Can I remove my rear differential w/out removing both axles? Nope, the axles have to come off. You have to pull the stub axles to get the innards out.
