GSl-SE and GSl LSD differences?

OK, so im a little curious. I have a LSD rear end WITH ventilated disc brakes, and LSD. Im guessing GLS-SE. What i basically want to know is, are there any differences from GLS-SE and GSL? I know axle lenghts are different, but is the LSD the same unit? Do the axles use the same splining?

GSL-SE LSD's have 3 clutch plates and the GSL's have 4 IIRC. Different rear end gear ratios and depending on what year GSL you get, the axles will have smaller bearings . All -SE's came with Big bearing axles. All GSL's came in 4x110, -SE's in 4x114.3

Hope that helps

The only difference is the LSD side gears , GSL-SE / S-3 = 26 spline & S-2 small axle = 24 spline !

axles are different, bolt pattern is different for 14-inch wheels on SE. GSL has 4-wheel disc, 3.90 ratio, SE has 4.10 ratio.
