A direct replacement for the standard differential, the limited slip differential transforms your car's performance. Unlike a conventional plate-style limited slip differential, this differential relies on gears rather than clutch plates for its operation. That means it is much smoother in operation. This differential type never locks harshly with a set pre-load of wheel slip across the driven axle, like a conventional LSD. Rather, the differential automatically biases the torque away from the spinning wheel across the axle, to a constantly varying degree, and never locks.• Used by Ford, General Motors and Daimler-Chrysler as original equipment
• Used in all forms of Motorsport, such as Formula 1, rallying, truck, drag and drift racing
• Improved traction leads to better acceleration
• Consistent traction out of corners means better exit speeds and shorter lap times
• Inherently safe, never locks solid
• Controlled power transmitted to all driven wheels, maximises traction and minimises wheel spin
• Fully automatic operation
• Eliminates unwanted torque-steer, under-steer and snatching characteristics of other types of LSD
• Gear operated, no friction plates to wear or break
• Benefits all year round regardless of traction conditions
• Direct replacement for standard unit
• Minimal maintenance requirements
