Hi, im new the the forum and just bought an E-Reg E30 325i SE

I've done a search but couldnt find anything about fitting a LSD.

Does anyone know how hard it is to fit a LSD?

Is it something you could do yourself?

If it was put in a garage how many hours labour would that cost?

Cheers

All depends on how competent you are at mechanics.

I'd say it was an easy job with a few pitfalls but a beginner should not attempt this.

Also DECENT lifting and support equipment is required to avoid injury or the car falling on your head.
