Hello all and Happy New Year.

This is a bit of a long shot but I would like to "feel the Canadian market" for the subject items.

Jamie Valcamp was at my place this afternoon and we "noodled" with his EVOVIII LDS. Quite interesting of a project might I say.

Anywho; let me know if you have one for sale. All I'd be interested would be the LSD.

Second item is even longer of a shot; Front LSD for a 2G Tranny.

Lets see what is available "out there"!!!

Just go buy one from Malaysia. The one i got was incredibly clean. I had the guy email me pics of all the ones he had and i chose the cleanest looking one. The thing was mint. I have since sold it to Corte Beech. You cannot find a better deal. Forget the EVO 8/9 stuff. Its overpriced.

I would even go around ebay and email this guy separately to try and get a better price outside ebay fees.

Will you be using the shim kit i left with Jamie? Mine has since been installed into my pumpkin ready to go into the car. My muscle car uncle shimmed it for me for the preloads.

I also bought mine from Malaysia on eBay, I'm pretty sure it's the same seller. Came in in perfect condition.

Indeed very interesting.

I'm actually looking at what Jamie is doing. He was over yesterday to pull out and push in the new Bearings on his unit.

Thanks for passing on the info.

Looks like there's better options now but when I got my evo8 rear diff I paid $550 all in for it (bought off evom), but then was able to sell the rest of the diff, without LSD to make $200 back.

For those that buy one of these, check bearing fit on the cover end, as it could be loose. You can get a much beefier, billet cover from TRE if yours has an issue, but they don't come cheap.
