Brad,

Whose LSD? If you have the Nissan LSD clatter and banging, of course, not
good. However, if you have the BRE distributed Detroit Locker, a ratcheting
noise and motion in turns at low speed is normal.

Subject: [Roadsters] '68 2000 Differential

I am looking for some advice on finding a part or a replacement differential
for my 1968 Datsun 2000 roadster.  The existing limited slip differential
appears to be from a 510 station wagon (twenty three splines on axels) with
a 4.62 ratio.



Upon inspection, the problem appears to be that whoever put the diff.
together, may have used an improper, crushable pinion shaft spacer or any
number of other possibilities.  Additionally, there is not a 4mm spacer
behind the ring gear, but even after researching the issue, I am not sure
the 4mm spacer is needed on this differential.  Despite all the clatter and
banging coming from the diff., the gear teeth appear to be fine, with no
chips or visible cracks.



Any ideas about locating a proper, crushable pinion shaft spacer for this
differential or any ideas on who I can contact to discuss my dilemma would
be greatly appreciated.



Brad
