can a normal diff be replaced by a lsd?

I'm finding it hard to source a local diff in perth area but someone has a lsd for £120.

Yes it can. Prob shaft might need adjusting, not a difficult job.

If someone has one for sale at that price it's either fooked, not an LSD or a bargain.

yes, id be sceptical as to the condition of the lsd as it does seem very cheap. usually £200+ depending on ratio but you might be lucky and have found a bargain.
