Kouki LSD will not fit RA40 axles.

Kouki Axles will fit the Kouki LSD but not the RA40 Housing

You would need to modify the Kouki Axles to suit the RA40 Bearings and Retaining plates and then fit them to the RA40 housing in order to make it fit.

A Zenki LSD Center will go straight in.

SO, your procedure is now as such:

Step 1, sell Kouki LSD
Step 2, buy Zenki LSD
Step 3, ??????
Step 4, Profit.

There is a very current thread floating around on how to change the diff center.

Search before posting in the tech questions, and use the template next time.

As rice86 has just said, the axles have to match the centre, everything else should work. But your RA40 centre will have a shit ratio of either 3.9 or 4.1.
