Is this what your cusco RS lsd looks like with the 3 ring markings around the case?
Also those holes in the case are circles... not ovals like what I have seen on other cusco LSDs.

I bought this off someone on the board and just want to make sure it is what I paid for.
There are no markings on it or any other way to tell if its a cusco rs.
I searched for photos everywhere but cant find anything that looks like what I have.
Id email cusco but the last time I emailed them I never got a response.
When I turn the input side both axle sides turn the same way smoothly so thats pretty good.:D
Lemme know what you guys think.:wavey:

Oh and I was also wondering how I go about switching from 2way to 1.5 way with this lsd.
Thanks

After finding this picture of the two lsd's I realized the lsd I recieved is NOT the cusco RS that I was told it was.
It is the cusco MZ! That bastard s14brent sold me the wrong one!

Copy pasted from the first site that showed up on google.
Cusco L.S.D.
1. Type-RS
Low initial torque type using RS springs.
2. Type-MZ
Initial torque created by the cone plates.
With the Type RS, the initial torque is absorbed by the RS springs therefore the initial torque comes on gently compared to the Type MZ which comes on stronger as it uses cone plates and response of the LSD is better, as the friction is lower.

my point is, you weren't screwed.

Wow s14brent screwed you over? wow he seems like an ok guy since he posts when possible on the Az board but I guess them Vegas guys cant be trusted.

hit him back up on Az or whatever board you contacted him for an explimation... just so you can feel whats goin on because pics before a purchase is a must IMO

After doing research I was really hoping to get the RS though...
The MZ is also a cheaper lsd than the RS is.
I talked to him on aim and we worked something out.
