lsd article in 4WD Monthly

Post by cookie monster »

just got my latest copy of the mag, and there is a very interesting article on shimming up the pre-load on your lsd. they even use a 89 paj as the guinee-pig.
question for the forum- i believe the lsd in the later 3.5/2.8td diff is a torsion type lsd. can the same principals be used as for a clutch type lsd ?

I don't think so. I think the "torque transmission" (or whatever it is they call it) in a Torsen is a function of the teeth geometry on the "side gears."

Cheers,

Scott

Yep Scott is correct.
BTW the Torsen type lsd came out with the NL onwards.

Would it fit into other Pajeros ?
'2001 Disco td5
'90 Maruti Ute 1Ltr Lwb

Experience is something you don't get, until just after you need it.

We first received the 2.8 and 3.5 with NJ in late 1993. The 3.0 was dropped late in the NJ run, so the NK (early '97) only had these engines (and larger brakes on the front of the GLS?) The NL arrived here late '97, with the flared guards that the Americans call Gen 2.5. This model received the Torsen LSD.

All the above taken from the Tech thread in this forum. :D

Cheers,

Scott
