Someone please help w/ lsd question!!
I have a 03 evo with non acd tcase. Ive read and have been told I can use the acd/rs lsd in my tcase....
I bought a evolution 7 rs swap with tcase and it has acd, the lsd wont fit into my non acd case and I cant figure out if its aftermarket or factory , I cant find a pic anywhere of another one like it. PLEASE HELP

dude you answered your own question. It won't fit.
you can swap the full transfer case however, but you will need to take the ACD pump & controller as well.
I had a quaife in mine, wavetrac makes a diff for the '03 as well.
good luck!

this is not a factory LSD, this is a plate LSD that is used in racing, stock LSD is a helical one..... and it will need a different gear oil too..
as to why it doesn't fit.. I have no idea, it should.. What is the problem? does it not fit in the transfer box?

could be cusco, carbonetic maybe...
can't you use the carrier housing from the ACD tcase and put it in the non ACD case?
the oil should be any LS oil... but the diff shares the oil with the gearbox, so this is a problem as it will not work with the stock gbox.. you need a straight cut box...

So by the looks of it , I have to use the bottom half of the acd carrier and the top half of the non acd carrier.
