Default does obx still make lsd

Well I checked their site and no obx lsd anymore. Do they still make them? I don't care if you think their junk, do they still make them? Only like 6 of them on ebay now.

Just asking. Need this for my crx drag car.

I've heard of the axle problem. But I just read about a guy that had like, every part of the lsd the wrong size. The bolts were too long, the case was too big, nothing fit right. Sloppy for the axles. Guess i'll spend the money on a wideband.

I have one in my B16A tranny and I tried taking the axle out. That **** is not coming out. I used air hammer that I use to take shift linkage pin out. It didnt even budge.

Dead blow and hammer punch works better than air.

I have the OBX LSD, & it works great, many of my friends have it, including on civic making over 800 hp on it, but all of us have trouble getting the axle out of the passenger side. I can see why either, I actually removed the clip off the inside of the axle thinking that was what was catching. Does any one know what part is catching? Besides that problem the LSD has 10,000 miles on it and plenty of passes, I launch at 8,000 rpm, and put down 475 hp & 350 lbs tq.

Well you guys all have the b series LSD. OBX apparently really screwed up the d series one. that's the word anyways. Apparently they don't fit in the tranny even, and you gotta grind stuff down.
