MSP LSD -looking for other owners

well My box went first one in the FE powered things

so I'm 95% sure it's the Diff.

all gears no action - was a loud bang and well no drive and no crunching either. all my other diffs have either dropped the pin or all the auto's it's chewed out the spiders and dystroyed the box.


So I understand from memory one should of had it welded to something ?

I just dropped it in because I had no time nor did I see a stock n/a FE DOHC - breaking something desgined from something more powerfull.

then again full throttle launches -flat shifts and oh well attitude might cause it dramas.

I just wonder if anyone has any photos or experience with it blowing up breaking the ring gear etc.

I'm contimplating my options as next week it wiil come out and next week I will panic then

Nah, the diff casing that holds the spider gears cracks at the base and shears the top off, down near the crown gear
