LSD Upgrade and Diff Swap | Basic Barra Performance Mods Pt 5

Рет қаралды 44,377

3 жыл бұрын

No one likes a one wheel peel so it’s out with the open centre diff and time for an LSD swap in our BA Falcon.
Our previous ep’s in this series have seen us increase the power from our little Barra, but all the power in the world is useless if you can’t put it down.
So we went ahead and picked up an LSD diff and full cradle assembly from a turbo Falcon. These diffs are plentiful and can be had for anywhere from $250-300 upwards, having the added benefit of stronger axles and M86 centre/gears.
It’s now time to fit this assembly after replacing the clunky old diff bushes at home in our previous video, with both these videos being suitable for Falcons from BA, BF, FG and FGX as well as SX, SY and SZ Territory’s.
Hope you enjoy, thanks for watching and please consider subscribing for more.

Its worth mentioning that the ba bf and fg have variances in the cradle. The biggest one to be wary of is the ba bf has shorter shafts because the mounting points for all the arms on the ba bf cradle is closer to the centre. The diff bushes also change between ba bf at some point. I've recently just finished my diff swap myself installed bf mk2 xr8 m86 lsd into my fg mk1 cradle with custom spindle to fit up to my tailshaft. So good to have it back on the road. Also congrats on another good video I would have loved to watch this before I tackled it myself haha it was definitely easier removing the cradle then putting it back in myself haha

@Terry Drew You’re a legend mate, thanks for sharing the info. I can only research and share so much in the videos before it gets bogged down and dry, and I am a hack so there’s a definite limit to what I know.

Hears a tip undo the shocker 15mm from the body. Don't undo the wheel speed sensor just open the door and pop the rear seat up and unplug it. Don't undo the 3 15mm on the blade bushes arms. Undo the 2 18mms up further. Those 3 15mms can be an absolute bastard to undo. Always mark the position of the nut on the handbrake. And always always always mark where those weights on the the tail shift were or hellllo vibrations. Any questions in relation to anything ba bf. Holla. Dismantled thousands of them.

When you’re spinning the tyre you’re spinning the gear inside the diff, this spins the spider gear (the gear attached to the ring gear) in place, since it would encounter more immediate resistance spinning the ring gear around. The ring gear is connected to the driveshaft, then the transmission and maybe the engine. Now the rotation has gone through the spider gear it reverses. Think about a flat horizontal gear from above, engaged with two vertical gears, as it rotates clockwise, the gear on the right spins towards down, the left gear spins towards up.

Diff bushes are a bit of a pain but not the biggest deal, not going to stop the car driving at least. If you suspect they're gone maybe factor in $6-900 in the price when buying, seems to be going price if a workshop replaces them. Thanks for watching and good looking with the car shopping 👍

@chris929rr7 3 жыл бұрын

@@BrowneysGarage The brakes are a nice upgrade apparently and it's about all I have left to do on the old girl. All that is required is: - A set of BA brake upgrade caliper mounts from ebay. - A good used set of BF turbo 2005 onwards front calipers. - New 322mm front discs. - Some decent front pads. I'll be doing mine tomorrow and also using the oppertunity to paint the calipers red. I especially think red brakes against your green would really complete the look of your falcon.

@Chris 929RR Cheers for taking the time to give details, definitely sounds like something I need to look at doing when I get a chance.

Great videos. When checking for LSD by jacking the car up. Ensure the transmission is locked, either Park or in gear being a manual. If not it might appear you have an LSD because the crown wheel will be rotating with the prop shaft. By locking this, only the half shaft and spider gears will rotate.

The two front bushes need to be seated in by 5mm from flush this will stop the knocking when driving on road. I have had the knocking when I bought my bf second hand and I did a lot of research and found out that if you don’t seat them in the 5mm you will have knocking even if you put new bushes in. I told my mechanic and he was happy to listen and insert them in and I haven’t heard that annoying knocking from the diff since.

Yep, the IMS twin diff bush you refer to looks like a great bit of gear. But at around $1k + labour if needed plus still having to add the price of the front bushes on top it's just not economical for a lot of people until you're pushing some good power and abuse through it. Maybe one day...

Don't know about NEED mate, I'm pretty sure the factory single spinner one would hold up depending on how it's driven. Even then it would probably be ok if driven hard. If you want to upgrade to an LSD though a second hand unit from a turbo BA/BF would be a good option. It'll be 3.46 (or a think more rare are 3.23) ratio so look for this and the LSD markings on the tag.

Big daddy: Major surgery mate, the Ute's have a old skool have a solid rear axle & leaf springs, better to throw a 9 inch under it, wish l could on my sedan.

I know you probably won’t see this comment but anyways how long did it take to remove the entire setup just want an idea of if it’s worth me doing or not

I see it 👍. Can't help much though sorry, so hard to judge with running cameras and what not as well and I'm pretty bloody slow. Sure if you had no dramas and bust your butt it could be done in under a day, even at home, but when does that ever happen!

Is is it necessary to remove cradle just to fix a seal leak in diff?

@BrowneysGarage 3 жыл бұрын

Which seal? Not too sure but I'd say most would be do-able in car, seems like you'd have access enough.

@@BrowneysGarage for fg falcon auto, there’s a leak all over the rear diff. I’m thinking it’s the seal (coming from the propeller shaft). Can’t find any videos yet on how to fix that one
