I'm considering putting a limited-slip differential in the 901 transmission in my 914/6. How hard is this to do? Is this just a slip-in, or are there some tricky procedures here - like setting the pinion backlash?

It does take special tools to do it right on a 901. You can get real close by transferring all the shims and the ring gear from your current differental. It will work fine, but it may make a small amount of noise.
I would recommend doing it right, for longevity purposes. |
