Picked up the oem Motorsport 4.10!

So the only real reason to open it is to replace the stock clutches.. you cant add extra ones as then you cant close it up anymore. When I found out I wasn't able to add more clutches, that's when I went down the race diff route.

So your either going to end up with a stock/re-furbed Mdiff , or at that stage your going to drop in a diff from one of the many other manufacturers..

ill show you my plates that came out.
Thanks for the pics Vanne!

This is basically what I want to do... just refresh the stock LSD. I would love a drexler or RacingDiff uograded LSD but I have already spent too much on the car this year. If i can get the LSD open I can can refresh it with slightly better clutches for $600 vs $3K for an upgraded LSD.

Any chance that shop wants to sell the tool to open the diff or make another?
