bratman18 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Like I said in the playground I used for a short time a VLSD out of a 91 legacy turbo 5 spd. It was a direct bolt in. Or you could build an LSD which is explained how to do in the offroad mod section of this forum. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellow65 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) right guys! another brain picking session! lol just so i know what im looking for, what can i put, if anything on the back of my EA81 4sp now RWD trans, which is an LSD, not overly fussed about ratios which would fit, and what would i need to mod? and any pics of the car type to go with would be great ok from what i gathering you did a rwd set up on your 4 speed, (basically remove front axles and leave in 4wd) if that's the case you could run any rear ratio available in the r160s 3.54s, 3.70s, 3.90s, 4.11s and 4.44s. if you are talking about putting a lsd in with working 4wd you will need to get a gear ratio that matches your front. you should have 3.90. you have two options when it comes to lsds, the legacy turbo viscus goo lsd (not the best) or the much better clutch lsd from the older GL turbos. you can only use those two because you need the stub shaft that comes out of the diff so you can mount your axle to them. the newer style viscus goo lsds style take the axle into the diff it's self and is rationed by a clip. one other thing to note is you can put the viscus goo lsd or the GL turbo lsd in any gear ratio r160. for example i put a clutch lsd from a late 80s turbo in a 98 auto outback with a set of 4.44s. i also did the front diff to match too. i have done these so many times now i need to take some pictures one of these times. there is plenty on swapping to the 3.9 but not 4.11s or 4.44s. the process isn't any different, it's just the newer diff housings need to be grinded on just a little bit to fit the larger LSD.
