Default H22a tranny questions, concerns, need advise M2b4 - M2L5

I have an M2B4 - JDM LSD tranny that has a cracked housing.

The crack is in an unimportant area so it really doesn't concern me alot.

However I was just checking into getting a new final drive from MFactory and found out they are not compatible with my tranny housing.

So now I am thinking about killing 2 birds with one stone and swapping all the JDM H22a M2B4 LSD internals into my Prelude F tranny housing.

Then I could buy the new final drive and take care of the cracked housing problem as well.

Thanks for your help

Can I put the M2B4 internals in the other tranny housing?

The OEM LSD differential is larger than the OEM open Diffs. Thus the portion of the M2B4 housing that holds the differential is larger.

The other internals like gears are interchangeable, but not the diff.

supposedly mgags7 (from here on HT) has a OEM JDM LSD in his USDM H22a non-LSD tranny.

Really? Maybe you should pm him to confirm it's possible. As far as I know it's not because of the different sizes, but I've never tried either so I don't know from firsthand experience.
