Suspect Broken Diff. What's The Best Type Of LSD + Who To Rebuild It?

[R 6UY S]

See my earler post from last night. Turns out it's not a CV joint. Will have to get the diff open to see what part has failed but while i'm at it i'd like to make it as bullitproof as possible and change for a better type of LSD. Has anyone used one of these ATB jobbies? Also is it better to get a specialist to rebuild it?

Speak to John, he knows TVR diffs inside out!

I was always told a friction plate LSD was better than an ATB type

Wow, that repair job has just had a zero added to it then.

As with all repairs on a TVR!

Yes i'm sure i read that somewhere before about the ATB but on paper it dose seem like alot better way of getting more power down?
Thanks for the cheery comment Ridds! Cheered me right up that did! Lol!

Just seen you're thinking about the Mac shafts as well.

You'll be getting close to adding another zeros!

Yeah thanks! Thing is i've woken up to the fact that if i just put a standard second hand one in, it will be a false economy as i will break that one soon and any other weak component so i may as well bite the bullet and do things properly.

Too much power for the diff Guy?

It turns out that 3k launches on a smooth warm grippy surface are too much for something. Will let you know what when i find the broken component. Lol!

I am interested. My diff was supplied with the conversion. I wanted the 3.08 diff. We are smoothening out the last things overhere to pass the dutch mot. Then the fun has to begin. Tried the Cerb for just a couple of seconds last friday. It blew me away!

Speak to readman racing (John read) about the plate diff. It's brilliant!
