Greetings from Finland

Last week I received a new Quaife LSD diff unit, which I'm now
installing to my Triumph Spitfire. Now I wonder if anyone has any ideas
which oil is recommended with it? LSD oil? Normal? Mineral? Synthetic?

Another question is that should the crown wheel carrier bearings
pre-load be adjusted as with the original unit, or should it be smaller.
I guess that the because the temperature changes with LSD are higher,
the pre-load should se somewhat lower? ...or?

Many thanks in advance

Jari
