[6pack] Nissan LSD conversion question

[Dave More]

Are you still using stock rear axles? I recently cured a chronic clunk on mine
by ensuring that the splines were well lubed with grey moly high-pressure
grease. Just a thought.

Cheers,

moved in any direction since the install a few years ago, but Herman vdA says
he noticed his (driveshaft) after time had moved sideways enough to where it
sometimes bangs against some other body hardware. He rectified this by making
some offset bushings to fit into the "holes" you referred to. He said this
helped to recenter the driveshaft, and hold it in place. He made a pair of
these bushings for me, but as yet I haven't needed to install them.

speeds. This lurching starts when the rpm drops to under 1,500 while
decelerating in the top gears. I don't recall having this when running with
the stock diff, but this could be memory fade!  It's only mildly irratating.
With the smallest throttle input, this lurch disappears. It would be
interesting to know if other Listers who have both the LSD and a mild cam are
experiencing this low speed lurching.
