Well, in a moment of madness it seems I've acquired an LSD for the Sprint and am now mad keen to get it fitted!
It would appear that I now need a diff case spreader to get the old one out and pop the new one in: who'd a thought it!
Would anyone know how I go about getting one please as they seem as rare as the LSD's themselves!?
I guess I would prefer to borrow one rather than buy one as I can't see me using it too often, though if I have to buy one, so be it....that's if I could actually find where to buy one from!
Cheers fellas!
Come and see some pretty shoddy, slow driving of a really well prepared competition Sprint here!
I Think Mad Mart has one.......... that he made himself!
I was toying with asking him if I could borrow it to pull that diff I mentioned to you!

Yes I have one. I didn't make it though, the guy I bought SFB off made it and let me have it with a few other bits & pieces. You're welcome to borrow it (both of you) but it is heavy (postage both ways). I can draw it up & dimension it, if you want to make your own (something else for James to make a batch of?). You could possibly use a sash cramp but it may restrict access to the CW. It only needs to be spread a few thou.

I would be most interested to see some drgs please, though ironically, I'm now working with a company that only bolts stuff together, where as in my last place they had a great fabrication shop where I could have got one made up! I know some handy chaps still though....
I'll ask Steve what he wants to do, I'm not averse to coming down to pick it up if I have to...
