Trying to finish up my install on a kaaz LSD and i removed both shims, put on both enclosed bearings and set the lsd in the case with no shims on either side..... closed up the case and tq'd it down...... the lsd has a hard time spinning while in there.... and there is no room for a shim! is it supposed to be like this? the bearings are seated all the way down on the LSD and the LSD is sitting flush on both ends of the casing.... anyhelp or input would be apperciated ( SP? )

bumpz0r

 

another update?

 

no info

 

Simple question:
Why did you take the shims out?

 

wouldn't fit with them in........ plus thats how you shim a lsd

 

bump cuz i have a kaaz, but not installed by me

 

just bouncing around some ideas could it be that the bearings are pressed on too far and the diff is dragging on the case?

 

nope diff when pressed into either side by itself spins freely

bump for interesting question

 

bump im gonna try some new things today
let you know if it works!

 

OMG no help?

 

???????????????????????????

 

Are you using the tapered bearing or the roller bearing(like in a b16 tranny).

 

roller bearing which comes in the b16 tranny

 

=\

 

The B16 ball bearing is NOT the same as a GSR/ITR bearing! If you are using the B16 ones, this is our problem as the spacing is different. Get some GSR/ITR ones and you will be all set.

 

NO WAY?>!?!??!?! =\ oh man thats lame

 

trying the type R bearings today!
