Putting an LSD into an Rx2
 

So...since I've never had to pull a pumpkin, how hard is this swap?

I've got the early, threaded pinion flange, GSL LSD ready to pop in...is it something I can easily do in an afternoon or does this take time. Can I just pull the axles out enough to pull the diff out and plop the LSD in?

Who's got the experience? ;)

:wave: :wave: be sure its an 81-82

Is there an easy way to find out?....got it from Ryan (1984SE).... who I think got it from engine guy Ricardo who said it was 81-82

FAST ASS REPLY BTW....that bored at work? I'm on VACATION BOYEEEE!

you got it. slow day. well, everyday is a slow day for me. Just to make sure its a small axle, count the splines or bring it over and I will check it with my extra old school axles.

Old spline is 24 correct...or 26? I'll most likely hit you up this weekend...when its nice and swealtering hot....

Hey the whole thing is a cake walk, takes a few hours. As long as the punkin came off as gsl your good.

Wont be home for the weekend. Heading up to Rotary Fest @ Treasure Island.

No worries.
Treasure Island, Vegas? 120 degree vegas?

Ah-Ha...pitty I'll be in SanFran in 3 weeks!!!

To answer your question, yes it is just that easy. Some have said that you'll need to shave a tiny bit of material off the splined ends (1/4 or so from memory), but mine slipped into the S2 RX-7 diff without any drama. Your results may vary, but mine was a complete bolt-in swap.
