Offroad-Express

Does a 1988 Nissan safari grandroad long wheel base truck have a limited slip diff???

yes

do a skid and have a look
jack up the rear turn a wheel and if both turn same direction it does have l.s.d

also there should be an orange sticker on outside of diff

but yeah 9/10 safaris have rear lsd

are the factory lockers any good? theres a couple of setups on trademe along with al the vacuum lines

not sure how they go personally

but we cut the vacum lock centre housings out at work and put rangerover ends on for a guy here in palmy and his truck is a serious offroad machine

so they must be the goods

they are good but have a problem with stripping the gear inside so after a while it just keeps popping out under any load at all.

well when i fit this locker diff I've got will keep the lsd as spare

actually another question about lsd's, can i fit an arb locker to my LSD diff??

yes because when you change inbetween open, lsd, locked or whatever all you are doing is changing the center carrier of the diff (where the spider gears are) although dont quote me on expensive things

Is that the same for all diff's (Toyota/Nissan), I thought ARB could only be fitted to open diff's.

well i had a suzuki with a lsd and i put a arb in it with the same diff

ok ok i get the point jezzzzzz, no need to bash me to death with it and then carve into my headstone

I'm allowed to be wrong now and then arn't I?
