Hi All
My LSD has stopped working. I dont want a locker in the rear so i need to get it tightened. Does anybody know of a reputable specialist around the North side of Brisbane? also has anybody had this done already and if so, what should i be paying?
I wouldnt mind having a crack at it myself if i can find somebody to guide me through it.
Hi mate, might be obvious but have you checked the fluid quality and level?
x2 that was my first thought as wellQuote:

Yep thats fine. You can either shim it up, machine the housing or completely rebuild it. Darren Boxsell at redcliffe seems to be alright for this kind of work. If your good at reading and following instructions can quite easily be done at home.

thanks for the info. I can follow instructions ok. Is there a good set somewhere? Also when you say rebuild, what parts do you need?
Thanks.Quote:

As long as its for a limited slip and has atleast an 85w-90/140 then it should be fine. I run castrol 85w-140 lsx oil in mine with no issues. There is a good set of instructions on another forum im on with photos i will try and track it down. As for the rebuild you could get away with just doing the clutch pack in the LSD
would be good if you could find it make interesting reading thats for sureQuote:

Its a GU3 2002 model.
Same as mine manual, id try the oil first,unless its had a flogging
Im still looking guys I have been through 180 pages so far I will find it :)
Just over 200,000 and i only had it for the last 25,000 so i dont know how it was used in the past.
The y61 manual has quite clear instructions in the pd section page 21
a big thanks for the effort mateQuote:

That is a good link. Im doing this to my GQ tomorrow, I have 2 roadrunner offroad shims which are .7mm each. I will be only using one buy the looks of things. Hopefully it does not lock solid!
Thats an awesome write-up, and a great link. (sticky for LSD rebuild?)
Learnt something once again.....the Internet kicks ass.
