Re: alfa-digest V7 #1423 - Limited Slip Clutches

[AlfaNeely@domain.elided]

    The stock LSD has one clutch per axle.  Get a spare set of clutches from 
another rear end and restack spacer, clutch, spacer, clutch, spacer.  You can 
also buy new clutch disks, but they are about $75 each new and you can buy a 
whole rear end for about $75 to $100.  If the spare rear end has shot 
bearings, they come real cheap.

 Subject: ZF LSD Question
 
 A while back I asked about what it would take to tighten up the "not so"
 limited slip differential on my '74 gtv.  Well, I got some good advice
 from Tom Sahines and others and have found a handy reference in the
 CRH.  But..... last weekend, I finally pulled one of my spare diffs
 apart to see what it would take to tighten it up and now I have a
 question:
 
 The CRH as well as others implied that each side of the shim stack
 should have two clutch discs and two spacers.  Well, mine seems to have
 only one clutch disc and two spacers, stacked: spacer, clutch, spacer,
 spacer, from the inside out.  Also, they all mic the same thickness,
 0.078".
 
 Should the LSD come with two clutches or only one?
 
 Thanks, as always...
