2.8 lsd requires a higher torque to slip compared to a 4.2 which is more than half the torque to slip - put simply... the 2.8 is more effective being an LSD than the 4.2

Is it really a different diff setup, just shimming or does it appear to work better just because it is a different ratio.
GQ LSD is pretty damn good, be hard to pick the difference on the trail I think.
Maybe the 2.8 one was just less km?
My 350,00km GQ one appeared to be working well, but then my tightened up front LSD made it look pretty ordinary.
