i used a pry bar (similar to a crow bar, just a bit smaller) and it works great, slide it behind the carrier, against the face of the pinion and against the body of the carrier. simple really. don't see the need for a chain at all:thumbsup:

awesome, have putt some stockie rims on mind you there 225 50 r15 and there bulging of the rims :p vibrates like hell when cournering but because its a ute i think it skips around the courner prity easy, heaps more control when side ways though its unberlievible and more importantly the vibration i was getting from my rooted lsd is gone.

I'm spooling my single pegger realy soon, prob next fortnite. KRUPTD i would keep the lsd as a back up mate, don't ruin the lsd by replacing it with a spool center.

HISPEEDVP What $ do you want for the diff gears mate??

to put a mini spool in an lsd you need to get the pins from an open centre to hold the hemisphere, lsd does not have these.
