I.D. this LSD?

Post by velopackrat »

Gentlemen,

I recently bought a few items from a former racer. Included in the deal was this pawl style limited slip diff. I've tried to study up on it via Lord Google but the best I can do is guess that it's either an early Jack Knight or a Special Tuning Salisbury type. The output shafts look to fit Hardy Spicer but I defer to your collective expertise. Does anyone recognize this beast?

Regards,

Chris

If it is an ST item, it must be a ZF because it is certainly not a GKN Powerlok. Good diff for those with weak arms.

Thank you gents,

I've put it up for auction on ebay, in case any of you covet such a fantastic relic.
Thank you for your help identifying the beast.

Regards,

I remember my one drive with one. They may have been great in a car on a race track, but certainly not something for a street car!
