hi guys, i've just managed to source a 3.91 slipper for my beast...

was just wondering if it is a large case or small case, and depending on this, will it fit straight into my 318iS or will i have to get different driveshafts aswell.

any help on this would be appreciated...

3.91 is a large case, you'll need to swop the output flanges over to allow you to fit this with your existing setup.

Yes, those are the correct parts.

You need to pull the flanges from your original diff and fit them to the LSD. They just pop out if you give them a gentle lever with a pry bar or screwdriver.
