It's not just the Neon guys, its the Turbo Dodge guys and the Honda guys and I'm sure there are others. No doubt that you should not have to go through that labor for a "brand new" part. But again, I can alter parts to make them work, but I can't make them (at least not an LSD).

To me it's about the choices. I won't do PG, I can't get another ERT, I don't trust the other inserts out there and the Quaife costs more than I want to spend. If for $370 + $20 for washers, I can get an LSD that I may need to modify (modify a modification, lol), then it is certainly one of my options. If it has a relatively good reputation out there for a few different platforms (albeit, after the modifications) then I will definitely take a look at it.

Having looked at it after the modifications, I'm pretty comfortable that this will work. But, hey, I could be wrong and what the worst that will happen? At worst, I will be pulling the tranny and putting another one in. Something I am prepared to do. I'll take the hit for the team. But as it sits though, unlikely.

There is just one thing that I'm leery about;

Originally posted by Star Turbo Talon There is no way I want to leave out the retaining clip for the axle

Yeah......I'm not liking this part. Logically the spindle is held in place and the tranny goes nowhere, thus surrounding the axle in place but...Eh, I don't know about this. There is flex in there. Not much but some. On launch my front end comes up and spits the axles out

? I don't know but others run without the clips.

Meh, we'll see
