That first lock ring launching across the room was a act of god making sure you put the right side in

The lock rings are different thickness and have left / right orientation to set the carrier position. They should be installed with the opening toward the oil channel so as not to impede oil flow. The bearings should be mated to the same spacers. These parts should all be bagged and tagged and reinstalled exactly as removed. A torque wrench is essential when assembling a diff. You can keep it from rotating by using a pair of 1x2s in a vice as soft jaws. I'd say there is a 50% chance this diff survives.

If this diff is still functional it, you have been lucky. The lock rings are the ones that determine the carrier side-to-side position, which is pretty important.

You did that absolutely great, it was really fun to watch. keep it up

Good Video. You obviously did your best. Few missing things that some comments already show. INPUT SHAFT? How to get all original parts out? Checking Backlash b4 putting on the Diff cover? Thanks to the comment below telling us BMWs are 5-6/1000/inch for used rings. Having these in one's complete video would be great, but overall, you gave everyone watching enough info to become confidence to maybe try themselves. Thank you

Has this guy ever worked on cars before?!

What i used to use in the chassis shop to rebuild winters quickchange rear ends is i weld a old axle shaft that is cut shorter obviously and weld a horizontal piece of solid steel so you can clamp it in a vice. And drop it on the shaft so you can torque the bolts also i always used a sharpie to mark each one i torqued to keep track

Hey man sorry to post question in this video for something else. But the mk4 Vw you put the Koni inserts in the coilovers. What was the part numbers for the inserts?

quick question. Did you not check backlash? How is this holding up?

My passengers side half shaft popped out on my 2004 325ci manual and I cannot get it back in. The retaining c clip looks fine. Any idea on what could block it from gong in?

Thanks for the video. Is it really that simple? The LSD is same dimensions as the stock diff? Any other tips for the swap?

I have a e46 zhp 3.64 diff. Do you think the mfactory lsd would work with that?

this is for the rear diff ?? there is no welding involved. everything just fits together. im having a problem with i believ my front diff on my e53 x5. rather than replace the whole thing id like to do an lsd. can you help answer a few ?s i have. Thanks

Is it the same procedure for quaife atb diff?

How did you remove bearing in the gear side without damaging it?

You didn't buy new ring gear bolts? Reusing them is okay?

Also, how's the LSD holding up so far? Is the new final drive ok for highway driving or engine revs too high?

I want to do this to my 320d e46. Where can I buy these parts? I’m located in Ireland

I’ve installed a torsen in a 3.64 unit, 100k miles,...and the main bearing preload was ...zero Nm, backlash to maximum limit, the contact patch a bit to off because of the wear i guess. Otherwise it runs well but it would need reconditioning, I couldn’t find a shop to accept such a job (non oem) so maybe I can do it

14:47 Pretty Simple :)

When refiting circlips please note theere is a correct way round to fit them - look at the holes - you will see the hole is tapered - you need to fit the circlip with the small diameter hole facing outwards ( nearest the circlip pliers) this will allow easy removal of the circlip if you need to remove it. again.

Did any of you guys have trouble putting the ring On the drivers (Left) side in?

How has it held up?

is the backlash in that diff modifiable ?

Nice very helpful video!

Hello 330C for Turkey E46 TOOL FOR HOW WOULD SUPPLY

Never ever suggest to use an impact wrench instead of a torque wrench. Its not about damaging the bolts but equalizing the load to the perimeter of the gear. You could have used an extra wrench to avoid the diff from slipping. And if you want to be perfect you could let all the parts (especially the used ones) to soak in gasoline in order for the old oils to dissolve. When u need to assemble parts to toque the surfaces need to be ultra clean. Never ever underestimate the usefullness of the torque wrench and the reason u need to tighten to torque and not more or less or even unequal. Otherwise pretty nice vid.

Bearing size please

Hey. Can you tall me more details?

what lsd is this

I have a MK4 and I need to have my solenoids changed. Can I get a quote fyi I have the parts

How are you liking the Mfactory 1.5way? Is it streetable in your opinion?

How much percentage has this LSD? And does the "DSC" still works with this lsd?

It's called a snap ring and it is installed with snap ring pliers.

How did you manage to get the bearing off the open diff did you need any special tools?

A little late but what LSD did you use i have a 2000 323i and really want an LSD

Nice video but you should have check backlash. But maybe you were lucky with the shims.

Where do you find the bearings?

putt the dif vertical and you dont need a pump the pump is for dif that is mounted on the car

Merci pour la vidéo très belle je souhaite vous avoir pour trois questions en français svp

so what about pattern. wow. its asuming the new part is EXACT SAME fitment to 0.001". hmmm. really?

price of the lsd?

that dif didnt break Down by oil failure but hard abuse oil failure ruins the bearings

75w90? Why not 75w140? Since its an lsd

2004 320i 2.2L so does every rwd non m cars has same differential

Don't use Red RTV.. There is RTV made just for this purpose. Gear oil RTV

Hard enough without being on LSD.

Can you give me your LSD part number and vendor I need to make a swap in my M3 E 46. thanks in advance!

Will it increase HP ?

Hello You have to use 75w-140 for The LSD. When You Use 75w90 your diff is asap damaged. 75w90 is not The correct oil for an LSD.
