Selective L.S.D For your UZJ100

[EL_3grab]

To adjust the initial torque with traditional LSDs you must lower and disassemble the differential case, and then re-assemble it. With a selective LSD, however, you can select one of three initial torques by simply removing the drive shaft and rotating a camshaft-type selector to vary the load on the pressure-ring held cone spring.

I was wondering .. how cuold this be helpful for street driving or off roading ..

some info please ..​

Guys it's will cost you nearly 612 $ .. not bad

and an ARB is $675...

I'm a newb so pardon my ignorance

what's the argument for LSD vs lockers? or vice versa

2000+ have TRAC so a limited slip is useless on those models.

Limited slip was available for the rear of the 98 and 99 Lexus 470. Selectable electric locker was available for 98 and 99 Land Cruiser.

The product you have pictured is for the front differential anyways.

An ARB is a selectable locker which you can turn off and on. Similar to the Toyota e-locker only powered by air instead of electric motor.

Now if it was a " Torsen LSD" it might be worthwhile!

It's Selective L.S.D .. not a diff lock

It may be called selective but not really in the sense of the word when it comes to differentials. When the word selective comes up in the world of diffs it typically implies being able to select how the diff operates with the push of a button which in turn actuates the locker by air or electric motor.

With this selective LSD, you have to disconnect the d-shaft which is not necessary with e-lockers and air-lockers. Even after going to the trouble of disconecting the driveshaft and adjusting the LSD it can't achieve 100% lockup like the aformentioned lockers and may be more prone to wear.

It's a good find as I've never heard of it before for a 100; but I'd still rather have an ARB.

IMHO, clutch type LSD's will have an advantage over both traction control and locking differentials when driving on smooth pavement at speed. Obviously, you can't use diff locks on pavement. LSD is always on, has smooth engagement and does not use braking nor any kind of engine retarding to help with traction. Selective LSD seems like a nice feature. Usually you need to disassemble the carrier and shim it to vary the break-away torque.

It would be nice to have LSD integrated with differential locks. LSD and a good driver will most often be faster than any driver with traction control and an open differential. There might be some advantage of using a front LSD in the sand as well. For most people on this board, LSD is of little importance.

Wouldn't this acheive the same result?
Its a LSD but can be selectively engaged into a "locked" configuration?

I don't know if it even fits the 100 , but it seems to solve the selective concept you desire

Detroit doesn't build anything for the 100. No Detroit, no TrueTrac, nothing. Sucks don't it?
