Slip Torque of LSD Disc
1. Set the differential assembly in the vice securely.
2. Check the LSD slip torque using a jig as shown in the photo.
3. If the LSD slip torque is not within the factory specification,
adjust with LSD shim (1).
• When measuring the slip torque for LSD, apply ample
lubricant to the LSD disc.
• Turn the LSD side gear using a jig to clockwise and
counterclockwise each direction several times to mesh the
LSD disc and steel plate.
