LSD 450 C Limited-Slip Differential Gear

The LSD 450 C is a high-performance Limited-Slip Differential (LSD) designed specifically for motorsports applications. Unlike standard open differentials found in everyday vehicles, this advanced LSD ensures that your driving wheels maintain optimal power transfer to the road, no matter the conditions. Whether you're navigating tight corners or tackling rough terrain, the LSD 450 C delivers the traction you need to excel.

Key Features

  • 1-Way and 1.5-Way Options: The LSD 450 C comes with a default configuration of 1-way (45/0 degrees) and can be adjusted to a 1.5-way (45/15 degrees) for tailored performance.
  • Side Bearing Included: This product includes a side bearing for the Active Center Differential (ACD), ensuring seamless integration with your vehicle's existing systems. Replacement Side Bearing Part # LSD 449 SB is available if needed.
  • Initial Pre-Load: The LSD features an initial pre-load of 3-5 kg, utilizing 8 out of 12 springs for a balanced performance that meets your driving style.

Benefits of Upgrading to LSD 450 C

Upgrading to the LSD 450 C can significantly enhance your vehicle's handling and performance. The LSD minimizes wheel spin during acceleration, allowing for better grip on various surfaces.
