As in you have a 2.93 LSD? I have also read that you can put an extra LSD clutch in the stock diff?
Yes. for more lockup. you don't NEED a 2.93, but it would be a little nicer. Would be a good winter project though! And it will help the squirly-ness on straight line beans giving. The clutch packs, not the ratio.
but seriously throw the getrag out. no need when zf's are better and cheaper.

Zf would be worth the couple extra pounds.
Yes, I do have another 2.93.

Got a 2.79LSD from GunMetalGrey. Now doing research on ZF swaps now with a focus on which driveshaft to use. Any input from y'all would be great.
Ordered a twin disk UUC clutch over the shopping weekend. Had a special deal going on. Got a t-shirt, clutch stop, Evo-3 shifter, braided slave cylinder line for free plus $100 off the order.
Gearing up to make this a reliable freeway ride. Taking it cross country this summer.

Nice progress.
Let me know if you ever stumble on another LSD. I will eventually need one once my 4.10 goes out.
I have a 3.73 lsd with your name on it! GunMetalGrey has a couple also.

Is this supposed to be a solid trans mount deal? I have a couple uhmw condor mounts attached to a crossmember sitting in my old swap car. But they are damn 1" thick uhmw with a clearance hole lol. A whole 3$ worth of material.

They are stock e21 with a jacket surrounding the rubber I guess.
I have the condor trans mounts now. I like them for driving around town and short beat runs but I'm planning on doing a cross country trip with my fiancée this summer and buzzing all the way to Cali isn't too appealing.

I have plenty of solid trans mounts in the shop if anyone needs them.

I see I see. Very understandable. What are you thinking for motor mounts?
Whats the most stiff/least vibration? At least what the most soft mount thats okay with an FI system?

I was going to keep the Condor engine mounts and run a stock-ish trans mount like I had before. It felt solid.
