Limited Slip Differentials
Please ensure your correct model is selected
When it comes to gaining a significant advantage over your competitors, the MFactory Helical Limited Slip Differential (LSD) is your ultimate ally. This LSD offers a seamless and consistent distribution of power to your vehicle's wheels, allowing you to harness maximum traction and put the power firmly on the ground.
But what does an LSD do, you ask? Well, without an LSD, your car essentially operates as a "1-wheel drive," as it can't deliver torque to both wheels simultaneously. Instead, it directs torque to the wheel with less grip, highlighting the limitations of an open differential, which is standard in most vehicles.
An LSD, on the other hand, permits the wheels to spin at slightly different speeds by a limited amount, typically represented as a percentage difference. It's when the differential locks that both wheels receive power. It's important to note that LSDs function differently from locked differentials, such as those in off-road trucks, which supply equal torque and rotational speed to both rear wheels simultaneously, often causing handling issues.
As part of the break-in procedure, we recommend changing the fluid after the first 3-400 miles of use.
