Anyone have a disassembled rear diff laying around

Post by Legacy777 »

I'm wanting to try and get some dimensions from inside the case, and was wondering if anyone had one laying around, either for the non-VLSD or VLSD. If you have any pictures of the insides, that'd be helpful too.

Thanks

The best I can do at the moment is a 04 Forester XT 4.44 vlsd rear diff.
I can grab pics if you want.
Let me know if you want me to measure anything.

I'll be taking my 3.9 open diff out to swap in the vlsd at some point, but it might be a while.
I can take pictures/measurements then if you want.

I'm mainly interested in the older diffs. Quaife indicates that their LSD fits the 1993 - 2000 Legacy rear casing/diff. From talking with one of the product engineers, it sounds like they determine applicability when folks either send in a case or take measurements to verify.

So I was just trying to figure out if first gen legacy cases would work. Dan (93forestpearl) had indicated the LSD cases had some spots machined to fit the LSD, but I've never taken one of the Legacy rear diffs apart to see, or compared a non-vlsd rear diff case against a vlsd rear diff case.

Here's the drawing from Quaife with the dimensions of their diff.

Any help or info you can provide would be great...whenever that may be.
