Hello,
I started collecting parts of this project 30 years ago and the last parts have fallen into place.

In this post I hope to clear up some confusion and convey some of what I found trying to complete this project.

First piece

purchased form PAR in Yonkers NY 1986 914.332.209.00 casting number 51D

The LSD found its way to me in 2013 from the venerable Cap'n Krusty

The diff needed some work as it was missing internal spring plates which are NLA.

Item number 4 in this factory illustration.
This part places tension on the clutch pack which is measured as drag.
The factory spec on this is 29 - 58 ft. lbs

This item can be replaced by what is now called a "cup" spring from and early 928
part no. 928.332.555.00
Attached Image
seen here as item number 10

As for the internal wear parts, the 914 parts are NLA but, get this they are replaced by mostly 917 parts! WAY COOL.

Just the beginning, stay tuned!
Mike
