Rear Diff Issue

Curious if anyone has found clutchpacks for sale anywhere other than the sub assy, or if anyone has welded the viscous coupler to the pressure plate to make it a full time awd.

Re: Rear Diff Issue

No. Making it full time AWD is a no go if you are driving the car on sealed hard surface. You will break the transfer case.

I am currently working RD1 diff, using air to actuate the clutchpacks to fully lock the diff when required for offroad events. This is done by bypassing/blocking some oil gallery on the diff and air is supplied by 12V 4wd air compressor.

Re: Rear Diff Issue

What do you mean by "clutchpacks for sale"? Are you talking OEM or upgrades? I know of no upgrades, but OEM rebuild kits are still available for about $200...

Way more details on the air locker rear diff mod can be found here:

Full time AWD won't work out mathematically see here:

All this is pretty easy to search for online.
