Limited Slip Diff resources?

Post by Jake Stumph »

Hello All, looking to fit a limited slip diff into the BMW, but need guidance on picking the right set up for the application. Do you know of any resources that could point me in the right direction as far as getting the right differential for my needs? Diff vendors, literature on setup and application, etc., would all be useful. TIA.

Thanks for the shoutout, KJ!

What year/model BMW? And are you prepping for a particular class?

If it is for a 135i your ring gear may be welded into place instead. If so, your installation options will be limited.
Feel free to PM me or find me at the next event!

There are a bunch of options out there. It really depends on what you're looking for!
