News on the LSD today! 
You may remember my quest to have a Vitara front LSD (my "signature" mod for many a year) shoe-horned into the front axle of my Jimny? Well, good news today from Richard "Rockwatt" Wattam of "RAM Auto Design" (a new name you're soon sure to hear more of)... well "good news and bad news" he said when he rang me earlier today! :S He said he could make it fit with some machining, but it was a one-way irreversible operation, and it would become a Jimny LSD rather than a Vitara LSD in the process... "No problem", I said, "as I don't have any Vitaras anymore"
Turns out my hillbilly measuring with my measuring stick -
Wasn't quite accurate enough...
But of course, the "God of Gearing" made it fit! Here it is sat on the bench after machining and reassembly, and it's now on it's way back to me for eventual fitting in the Jimny's front axle...
Not next weekend though, as we're out greenlaning around Shropshire next Sunday... but that's a different thread / blog... more on the LSD soon though.
Thanks again to Richard "Rockwatt" Wattam of RAM Auto Design!
