Ok ive got a lsd multi-plate, but need some info on it. It looks like a Trans-x type, but the name on it is LEMAX, its got 4 plates one side, does that mean it will slip abit more before tightening?? and where can i get plates from, all advice welcome :) rich

Rich,

Sounds similar to the Jagpowerlock diff that has clutches or clutch type plates.

Did an extensive search for the names you provided and came up with silch
apart from a few links to sites of people of uncertain gender :lol:

Is this diff specifically for the SD1 axle?

I have no pictures of the breakdown of the plate clutches. I think from memory there are 3 plates each side with 4 tabs that locate in the case, and two splined plates that locate on the two larger spider gears that the output shafts locate.

Alan!
We only do RWYB Drag Racing at a DIY level. So scrutineers aren't bothered.

And for me with MGB diffs being given away, I have a good supply of cogs and shafts :)
