New Guy Looking For Help On 1991 318i Rear End

Yes, my car is a 5-speed. While reading on line somewhere, it stated that 5-speed cars had open diffs and autos had limited slip. But I don't know if that is accurate. I honestly don't care what the gear ratio is, I just need to get out of the hole and one tire is not cutting it. I just need a cheap solution that will bolt in.

The LSD was an option and available with either transmission. You have to be careful what you read online, not all of it is legit.

Here is some good info.

i want to make sure OP is talking about the same thing everyone else is:
we're talking about an LSD that's already installed to the pumpkin, which indeed is not that hard.
But if you are talking about taking a pumpkin apart and applying an LSD, you better damn sure know what you're doing. There are a myriad of things that can go wrong if you aren't good and have the right tools. A lot of people don't know how to properly install an LSD and end up with things like backlash being way out of spec.
as long as you're talking about juts swapping in a new pumpkin with an LSD in it, then carry on.

Yes, I am just looking to swap the whole case. I dont know how these carriers differ from a chevy rearend as far as assembly but I'd rather not find out. Haha.should I just post in the parts wanted thread or can any of you guys point me in the right direction?

I found this awhile back. Looks like it is not too difficult.

That doesn't seem bad at all. Hopefully I can just find an lsd soon. Would save me a lot of work. Thanks for the info!
