Thread: Budget Differentials that fit the AE86

  1. #1

    Lightbulb Budget Differentials that fit the AE86

    I need to overhaul my diff, so I thought, why not upgrade while I'm at it?. Anybody knows what lsd's from other toyotas will fit the hachi with little or no customization? The usdm gt-s's one is kinda overpriced here, I don't want to buy the trd one and I don't want to weld the current one either, so I'm looking to pull a frankenstein.

    Yeah, I'm a cheap bastard.

    As above, only real option. No real gain. Find a F series that someone else has already modded FTW.
    I got nothing.

    In case it was missed in the posts above, there is no cheap option for an LSD in a Sprinter. At a bare minimum you need a T series rear end (unsure if you have that already) and then find either an old flogged factory LSD, or fork out for a TRD/other aftermarket brand. Then get the centre built into a housing and drop it into your diff.

    Or you can weld you current centre.
