Hi Daryl..... re '....including my own fnt and rear locker LSD's"

"locker limited slip differential" ?

the reason I ask is a guy just contacted me about putting a limited slip in the front diff of his syncro. He talked to you too I believe. I havn't heard of an LSD for a syncro front diff - just locking front diffs, solid shaft instead of VC, etc.

so what's the deal ? ..... does a limit slip differential set up exist for a syncro front diff, and does it work well etc ? and did you really mean "locker limited slip differential" ?

thanks ! Scott
