GU LSD Center Q's (center wanted)

Need to replace the LSD center in a 03 GU Coil Cab. Will be the center only, the current crown wheel will be swapped.

I pressume a center from a 04 3l will be the same, ie axle spline..

Thanks

I run a custom spec turbo from Mark on my GU, very happy.

After using another turbo company on a 100 series and not being happy JPC sorted the vehicle out to what I wanted. From past experience you may spend a little more intialy but it can also save.

Made them from scratch. You need some bending and turning, alright if you have contacts or mates in the trade but if not could be a hassle.
