Subject:      Limited slip diff and alternatives
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

All this off roading talk had me looking for dirt roads and hills yesterday.  I somehow resisted the temptation.  I'll wait until Sunday.

Now, are there any limited-slip diffs available for the Vanagon?  Can the diff lock from a Syncro be fitted to a standard Vanagon?  There's something available for the front-wheel-drive VWs - you replace the differential flange springs with heavier models and that limits the amount of independent wheel spin.  It's sort of a poor-man's Quaife.

ANYTHING?

Waiting to get stuck,

Chris.
