[sammysideways]

lsd by M.I.G

 

[sammysideways]

so ok, decided what im going to do, next question is, why is a mig diff better than an lsd?
i thought that a standard lsd was really good, is it that its nearly fully locked??

 

[missy]

welded, unless tyre wear is a consideration.

tyres aren't a problem are they sam

 

[sammysideways]

hehe...not any more.

Plus i have no mechanical sympathy as regards to tyres

 

[ant]

its gay, mine kept over heating and going open

 

[sammysideways]

is this a common thing? not sure i could be arsed if it goes open all the time

 

[ant]

mine does it after a good session

 

[sammysideways]

Agghhh they sound unreliable, im to lazy to keep removing diff to get it welded

 

[ant]

i ment the standard one, my mig spec one hasnt broke in 3 months of heavey abuse

 

[sammysideways]

shit, lolol...ant how on earth did you manage to break a standard lsd? that really takes some going ive tried and it just wont die
cheers buddy id be silly not to get a pikey spec diff

 

[superclarkey]

ARC is better

 

[ant]

i didnt brake it, it just gets a bit hot and goes open and crap, let it cool down and its fine again
