Hi all
This might be a dump question but..... I seem to get some shatter from the rear whenever I turn and power on. Is this the the rear LSD being a bit tight and one of the wheels dragging around?

Yes possibly. In Low Range mine will drag a wheel if. Try and do a U turn on hard ground

So it sounds pretty normal.

OK this might sound dumb but.
A mate tried to tell me once, slowly doing very tight circles L&R consecutively a few times can help to re-lube, flush oil on lsd disc faces.
after replacing oil, then do the circles as part of service.
don't know if this works or not, just passing it on.

Don't have to tell me twice to do some circle work:Yahoo!: If only I could get the wheels spinning in the patrol.

I think I might check the oil in that diff.

replace your diff oil with a 140w lsd oil, nissan lsd's are big heavy things that will chatter if running thinner oil

Was meant to at least have a look at it today. Just couldn't be fagged, another one on that bloody to do list.
