Title: stock lsd for a ls trans?
Post by: highroller54 on June 08, 2010, 02:33:12 PM
need to put a lsd into a ls trans, can a type r or jdm b16 lsd be put into a ls trans WITHOUT changing the final drive ratio?

B16 is the same diff and FD bolt pattern as LS.   If OEM "acorn" diff, you know they aren't very robust?

I do know that BUT Is the factory b16a lsd diff swapable for a open diff b16a? I have read that you cannot interchange the two  ??? different ring gear ***I THINK*** between the two?

Were not talking any kind of power or traction here a oem diff would work just fine  ;)

Hrm, you're right I think the ring gear bolt pattern is different.  Let me ask.

I am pretty sure the b16 viscous pile of fuck shares the same smaller bolt pattern with its B16/LS open differential cousin.  i have only seen one in person, and that has been about 3 years ago.

As far as i know, the ITR/GSR differentials are the only ones with the larger bolt pattern.

I am about 99% sure that is the case.
