Part #: LSD 184 F. Cusco's high - performance limited slip differentials offer multiple benefits. When turning, the inner driven wheel usually has less weight and may spin freely, which can prevent you from applying power effectively and disrupt the car's balance. With an LSD, it forces the other wheel to spin at the same speed, maximizing traction when accelerating out of a turn. During acceleration, a standard LSD may be too weak to lock both wheels, causing one to spin. Cusco's LSDs firmly lock both wheels, keeping the car stable and allowing you to use all your power. Cusco provides two types of LSDs. The Type - RS uses springs to absorb some of the initial torque on the LSD, resulting in a smoother engagement, fewer vibrations, and a longer lifespan. It also reduces the frequency of oil changes. The Type - MZ has no springs and engages more forcefully than the RS. You can adjust its sensitivity by changing the number of clutch plates, making it a cost - effective option. A 1 - Way LSD is perfect for FWD and AWD front axles. It activates only during acceleration, not deceleration. When you take your foot off the throttle, it acts like an open differential, giving you maximum traction when turning and braking. When you accelerate again, the LSD engages to ensure full power delivery. Important Notes: Contact us if you have any questions about the differentials. If you can't find the differential setup you want, reach out to us. The settings of the differentials can only be changed during an overhaul after disassembly.
Using this Cusco limited slip differential is straightforward. For normal driving, just let it do its job. During acceleration, it'll lock the wheels to give you better traction. When turning or braking with your foot off the throttle, it'll act like an open differential for maximum control. As for maintenance, the Type - RS has a lower oil - change frequency thanks to its spring design. But generally, keep an eye on the oil level and quality. If you notice any strange noises or a decrease in performance, it might be time to check the differential. When it comes to adjusting the settings, remember you can only do this during an overhaul after taking it apart. If you have any questions about installation, setup, or the different types available, don't hesitate to contact us.
