gq l.s.d. shims to locker

[shorty]

Has anyone put extra shims in there l.s.d. to get the rear diff locked how hard was it and did it work?

I'd be interested in this has anyone run the extra shim over a long period of time and how did the diff hold up with the extra load on it.
Mine is a 97 model and had a different diff center i thought was just a 4 pinion open and the other day i pulled it apart and found it was lsd with some sort of weird small clutch packs
I found damage on the shims where they run on a hex one was flogged out.

I have a mate who shimmed his with a .7mm shim of ebay but it locked it completly, lucky for him he is a machinist so he machined u a .4mm shim and it workes fantastic. I bought a shim for mine but after seeing my mates I didnt end up installing it as my lsd is still good. the best shims to buy are ones that are machined not stamped, crappy stamped ones have a little lip from the press.
