LSD oil friction modifier

[MARK_GT-APEX]

hi guys,
just wonder what do people recommend is the best LSD oil additive friction modifyer, i have brand new oil in my LSD and it makes SOOOO much noise, clack clack clack, bang etc when turning. any reccomendations?

[Hopi]

which oil you are using now? i use Castrol SAF-XJ and never had any problems with LSD

[MARK_GT-APEX]

at the moment im using millers competition LSD oil 75/140, ive tried silkolene BOA 90, and TRD LSD oil, but it still makes loads of noise and tyre scrubbing. its a VERY VERY tight LSD, i havent had it apart but i imagine its been shimmed up in japan

Mark i use Millers in mine
Mines an ultra ultra tight diff - one of the tightest I've ever driven in fact

No worries there

but i've read everywhere on the internet that a 2 way LSD just makes that kinda noises when you are turning at low speeds etc.
Nothing to do about it, so "the best way to fix is to not care about it '

Ah well, i'll see it when i placed my 2 way in my car

Kas had very noisy diff when he rebuild it. After some km done, noise was reduced

[rallyman1978]

yeah it clunks and bangs like a whore

just the characteristics of a 2 way

i love how it crackles when its hot

[vladx_kc]

yes, pure mechanic sound. I liked it too

yeh i have this same problem its like a weld up was wonderin why my 2 way scrubs liek that, but thats not the real issue, when turning at low speeds u get the scruibbin which seems normal but theres a clatckety noise inbetween it sometimes like something is loose? is that part of the regular noise to expect? it drives fine well atleast it doesnt drive like anything is broken (had broken axles befores so i know that feelin) was wonderin if anyone had suck a noise along with the scrubing and if its bad or just normal. u hear it like clack clack everynow and then if u ease back and forward slowly with full lock or any lock rally
thansk for anyt help

I've tried several different oils, cheap & not so cheap dino oil w/additive, redline synthetic w/additive, redline synthetic without additive (added some to it), amsoil, mobil 1, etc.

So far on my Cusco RS 2-way NOTHING compares to how MOTUL 90PA runs, it's quiet, smooth and [u:c14a68fac4]grips/locks[/u:c14a68fac4] very well. Without having a chattering problem.

Give it a shot, the motul is NOT a synthetic, as for most lsd's they DO NOT recommend running a full synthetic. I'm not exactly sure of the reason, maybe just experience with what works best, but there has got to be one.

I figured as a european board there would be more people here who like the motul stuff, but I don't really see much mention of it. Ah well, don't take my advice, try it in your's and see how it feels.
