Hey Guys, I need some help. I purchased a Helical LSD from an individual who had purchased it from Jap Andy. The LSD was taken out of a Jap. S15. Everything bolted in perfectly to my S14 housing until I tried to install the side shafts. The shafts would go in but would not engage. They would simply slip. Upon further inspection it was found that the side shafts have 29 splines (counting the peaks and valleys) where as the LSD has 30 splines! Has any one had this problem or does anyone know what side shafts I need and where they can be found. I have tried to email Jap Andy, but I get no response. Can anyone help or direct me to someone who can? Thanks!!

the S15 HLSD uses unique output shafts only used in that diff. you need to get some from japan.

there are any number of companies that import parts from japan just get one to get a set for you. or make friends with some one in the military that is over there. they could ship them directly to your house for cheap (i think) and right away, no waiting for a container.
