i'm looking for a 24v LSD with the ratio of 3.70

I have an early 3.45 LSD fitted to my 12v gsi in GWO

would swap my diff for the 3.7 if anyone is interested. Failing that i'd like to buy one either to have reconditioned or one in good order.

Many thanks

Ok - Now here's the thing - if you really want to know what your diff ratio is then do this: -

1) Remove diff from car
2) Count number of teeth on Pinion gear
3) Count number of teeth on Crownwheel or Ring Gear
4) Divide number of teeth on Ring Gear by number of teeth on Pinion Gear.
5) The result is your diff ratio

For LSDs Id Never use anything else except LUCAS Oil stabilizer... Pure Lucas...
Its the thickest Oil u can get and Ure diff is guaranteed to be very tight after that...
I Use near 50% Lucas in the engine oil too (2L)
50% in gear box too
