I'm buying a KAAZ 2-way lsd this week and I got a question about installation. A friend of mine made me raise an eyebrow of question so I search for the past two hours and came up w/ nothing. Now I turn to you. K, my friend is only domestic knowledgable and told me that when I install my new internals for the diff that I might have to shim it out. I was just wondering if our diffs do have shims or not. No shimming, I install no problem. Shimming, I'll take it to a shop. He said the shims go between the bearings and the retaining caps. Much mahalos to those who can enlighten me.
from what I've heard/read, yes, they have shims, so yes, you should take it to a shop. :)
Also important (I THINK it's applicable to S14) -- Keep in mind that if you had an open diff, you'll need 2 LEFT (short) VLSD axles to work with the new LSD, your open diff axles won't (shouldn't?) work...
:thumbsup: you'll have fun with the LSD, guaraneed!

thanks for the info, that's really what I've been wanting to know and haven't been able to come across on the net. I know I've seen it before but now I can't find it. Thanks again.
Is there anybody out there that can confirm this being as he said "I think."
