Question Swapping rear ends
I have a 86 GXL automatic that has the LSD and it doesn't run. I also have an 88 convertible 5 spd that I want to swap the LSD into. Anybody have any suggestions, for see and problems, or warnings. Thank you much appreciated.

Drop the whole rear subframe instead of just the diff.

Will make your life a whole lot easier.
