Where did you get the bearings from? I'll be doing this as long as I can get all the bits together

If you email them then they will get them for you.
I've seen them on ebay before as well.

is this the diff you've got ?

Was it easy to install ? What about shimming it? And the last Q is I see you've used the standard shafts, were they a straight fit in this LSD?

you need 2xs12 short shafts, (passenger side), then shorten 1 of them by 8mm by grinding the end and deepen the grove on it so that the snap ring fits, then the other shaft, you take the splined end off and fit the flanged end on off of an s13 shaft, then you use the pot joint out of the s13 diff into the s12 diff, which mates up to the flange on the shaft.

Yes thats the diff I have,I measured the lash on the original diff before I took it out and then checked it was the same once I had fitted the obx 1.

It's designed for an s13 with open diff so the original shafts fit straight in.

It's a straight copy of a Quaiffe lsd.

I've read that you need to replace the belleville springs in the obx cos they are crap but I've had no problems with mine and I'm running more than 300bhp.
I like it as a road use lsd as you really won't notice it's there unless you are giving it the loud pedal.
