I can’t even get a response on Facebook. Everything I search is “thow that 10 bolt in the trash”.
I want to remove my stock LSD out of my 1997 rear end and install a True Track (most likely). What do you guys think? Should I even attempt it? |

What about Youtube? there has to be something there. It really is not hard work but it can eat up sometime to get it right. I would suggest starting your measurements with the factory shims and go from there. It is usually very close. You will need a dial indicator with a magnetic base and a good dial caliper or micrometer to measure the shim thickness. and do not use blue Prussian blue it is harder to see the tooth contact pattern if you ask me. The yellow is nice.
