Title: Limited slip diff
Post by: sid131 on May 17, 2008, 08:44:06 AM
which 131 cars had the lsd as standard? i had 2 131 sports & know of 5 others that were in town years ago all had lsd fitted bit of sideways driving done as well, i also remember a silver one needing a diff & he got complete backend out of a crashed 131 sport also lsd for ?100 lots then, when my diff finally gave up i fitted a super backend, so any info would be nice to know.

i have converted 1987 corolla Ae86 back axle to fit the 131, so disc brakes Lsd final drive 4.3:1 so she will be quick off the line i hope, its only 24mm wider than the 131 axle, some guys have fitted the ford english axle & it will work also but i am a Toyota man & a little bit of Toyota in a Fiat 131 racing makes me feel good lol!!!

we build a custom lsd's to suit the standard 131 diff and we also make a strong diff  and we also have a rear brake conversion kit to convert to disks rather than drums

how much for the lsd. aussie


Title: Re: Limited slip diff
Post by: Aussie131 on May 07, 2009, 01:09:20 AM
which one do you want?
The stock diff with lsd or the up spec diff which requires the whole rear axle, our stronger diff is a fully engineered cut and shut diff using escort diff and fiat axle tubes and axles, it gives you a better variety of diff ratios and the option to use a ford motor sport diff center which is wat ive got in the wagon

I had 3 sports and my friend had at least that many and none of them had an lsd but I do know it was an optional extra on the sport and ive heard they are even weaker so maybe they were replaced on some of those cars?

THE STOCK DIFF WITH LSD


Title: Re: Limited slip diff
Post by: sid131 on May 08, 2009, 07:27:06 AM
I think everyone would like a firm price on both, it would have to be just the diff cos how you going to post a full axle from Australia?

Anybody that wants to fit an LSD send me your axle and i will modify it to take a
ford lsd then you just buy a ford English LSD and cwp and fit it or i can do this to

And you are still using a fiat axle.

Easy peasy.....

Rally design have new English LSD at ?425.00 +vat .
If you watch eBay you could get one for half that or less
secondhand.

And the cwp is ?215.00 +vat again the same with regards to eBay or motor-sport news adverts

The conversion costs about ?70.00
