Bye bye open diff....

Best part is the begining burnout, that was the end of my open diff..... I have an 84 LSD going in at this moment. The rest of the video is just a quick compilation I threw together. Most of the vids are from three or four years ago. Figured you guys might get a kick out of it. Sorry if you dont like the music, just personal preference

Smoking, unfortunately, no rotary noise. Like the quick change pics where everything opens and closes.

Oh I was planning to do some more, but after a nice "standing one tire fire" I took it onto the street and heard all sorts of lovely cluncking and grinding..... so my fun was over

Well I had to put the LSD off, the diff I got is pretty nasty. I temporarily put a spare open diff underneath it. I am going to have the diff sand blasted and painted. And I need to rebuild the calipers...... Oh boy.... But then I will document the process with pics for some of you guys. Even though it is a pretty straight forward installation.

Oh c'mon, I want to hear some more colorful comments.
