OK hive mind.

What diff oil do I need for the LSD fitted to Samy (S3C). I'm planning on just topping up but may drain as it's off the car.

Secondly, got to fix the driveshalt CVs, well clean out and reassemble. I am missing a couple of the banana shaped washers for the bolts. Anyone know where I can get them or know what they are called. Or did anyone pick up the two outside the Ratstatt last year?

Thanks Glen,

Tamy's LSD is definately a 'Hydraloc' version. Not sure about Samy's one though. Annoyingly, I can't find my Bible to check what 'should' be there. No oil came out the breather pipe as I removed it (and turned it over out of interest). I think the black gundge on it is residual cast off from the CVs letting go after the Rastatt.

Not back until Friday so will hunt out the Bible then. A trip to Halfords on Saturday morning if needed to get some (tranny) oil.

There's no imediate rush for the washers. The diff ends are complete save being cleaned and re-packed before reassmbly. The wheel ends (with the missing washers) need to come off for the brake upgrade. Gives a couple of weeks foraging time.
