well, a while back Hades12 had a SE diff that I was going to buy from him, cause I was having such a hard time finding a whole rear end (I really want disks in the back) anyway, I found a GSL rear so I didn't buy his SE diff, maybe he still has it.

The SE diff is earmarked for FBII, Hoping to get toghther with him this weekend or over thanksgiving to Deliver it. I do have an 85 GSL LSD that I pulled a few months ago. I was kind of keeping it layed back to use on one of my cars. I would sell it but I would ask more than it is Worth.

82, thanks for thinking of me.

Hey I would like to know the quality of the LSD and how good the website is that Rusty posted a link for. I would like an LSD rear end but I don't like junk yards and shipping and cost of a used one would cost about the same so $250 does not sound too bad to me I just want to know the quality of it thanks again for your help.

You bastard I will chase you down and take it from you if my open diff can keep up with your LSD diff that is. I was really just wanting to know the quality of the LSD unit at the site how long it will last if it is a good brand that kind of stuff I know how to install it and I know how they work.

Looks to me like all it comes with is a spring kit, a torsion bar, two snap rings, and those two blocks of material.

and if you are doing hard driving, it says you should purchase the other spring kit.

you mis understood what I said.

"hard driving" as in dedidacted track car, rally car...

not just "driving" there is no such thing as "easy driving" in my vocabulary.

hard driving means you are going to be putting much more stress on your drive line and axles and everything then just motoring hard around corners.
