Getting LSD

[Chris2088]

Okay, so I have a post about a strange noise coming from my rear end. I looked and there is leaking fluid all over the are where the driveshaft goes into the rear end.

So, Im guessing it would be a better idea to just get an LSD off a z28 and get rid of that one? Will I notice any difference in acceleration? Because I'm not sure what gear ratios the base camaros came with stock.

Also, would a junk yard be my best bet? Or online somewhere? Another concern is the fact that I have rear drum brakes. Will the new disc on the LSD bolt right up? Is this a big job and will a shop charge me out the ***?

if it's leaking fluid, the problem is the seals, not the carrier

Re: Getting LSD

So swapping the whole rear end wouldnt fix the problem?

well, it'll fix the problem, but it'll fix the problem like swapping motors will fix a ticking noise. Oh, and alot of your questions about Z28 rear's and gear ratios can be answered in the FAQ and/or with a 2-minute search

Re: Getting LSD

Oh ic. I figured it might just be a better idea to get an LSD for performance reasons. But I couldnt really find a complete answer on the whole drum to disk brakes thing. And if it would all bolt up correctly.
