I heard there was a difference between the GSL and GSL-SE LSD, but I don't remember what that difference was. I can't find the thread it was mentioned in either.

Something about the clutch plates... Number of them, size, something...

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

This has nothing to do with the gears or axles or anything... Just the LSD itself.

It's just a random tidbit of incomplete info floating around my head... If I don't find the answer it'll bug me.

 

The SE LSD is lacking a clutch plate

 

is that better?could u explain like what the clutch plate does? thnx and sorry for jackin this thread

 

Bump. Please clarify. In the mean time, I'm going to re-examine my parts fiches.

 

bump

 

What they mean is that the GSL-SE has one fewer clutch plate. The GSL has 4; it has 3.

 

The gear ratio is different too

 

Yeah... 3.91 vs 4.10... But if you have an aftermarket gearset, it doesn't matter which is why I excluded the gear info...

So, about the diff, I guess that missing clutch plate changes the characteristics of the limited slip abilities?

 

BAM!.......... er I mean bump.

 

We gonna take this hea' bread and stick it in the toasta'... Leave it in there a couple minutes. Maybe two, let it get golden brown... Take it out. Put a little butta' on it. Not good enough... We take this jelly and BAM! Kick it up a notch!

 

lol

 

so what effects do the eliminated plate have?

 

smoother engagement for the special edition?

 

Hey! We never did get a response to this...

Don't make me go into the kitchen and do more Emeril impersonations... Really. Please don't. The apartment complex is gonna evict me if they've gotta have the fire department out here one more time for my "experiments"...
