I've heard that this must be done. \How long do you do the fiqure 8 for? And is it need for an obx lsd?

does the sir lsd even fit into a normal box? I heard something somewhere about the box needing machining to allow the lsd to seat properly :-\

you have to grind off the webbing on the inside of the transmission where the lsd sits

Here's a write-up

Get OBX and needed parts

lay on new speedo gear, press on new bearings.

Rip apart the tranny, swap the diffs.

Check shim clearance, adjust as needed.

Replace ISB.

Put tranny back together, install into the car.

When on doubt, follow the Helms.

Parts needed..........

Thanks for the help Mista Bone. You are still indeed the tranny guru.

I remember reading I need a gear pressor or something to put the speedo gear on... anyone want to shed some light on this?
