............LSD is really only useful if you have traction problems from excessive wheel spin. Except if your car is modified and putting down some high HP numbers, you will likely not benefit much from an LSD in an E430. You may wish to save your money.

My installer said the install was realy straight-forward. Very high quality piece. Only "surprise" was that there are no shims or any other means of adjusting gear backlash. Fortunately, mine lined up perfectly as-is so it wasn't an issue. Might be on higher-mileage cars though?? Anyhow, still waiting on the headers to come back from Jet-Hot so I haven't driven the car yet. I'll be sure to post a review once I spend some time with it though.

05 ML-500 , 03 CLK5.5 AMG has left the Garage
Quaife TBD

Just a FYI You are Right there are no Shims , As per say. The Big Cir clips on each end of the saddles , That keep the side bearing cups in place , come in different thickness . Did you notice they were not just stamped ! They where also ground. Most MB parts guy's & tech are not aware of this . If one goes bad they are asked too replace the whole assy. not componet parts. A really good parts guy can find the Cir Clips. I too was lucky . the original ring gear had .080mm / .0315 thousanths end lash. measured at the outside of the ring gear tooth base. I remeasured after the Quaife was install . .083 mm / .0325 thousanths. Installed Speedybenz camber bars tonight . going to make some new Anti sway bar bushings out of urethane . Then go get the alignment done

Do I understand that this is a complete swap-out LSD that doesn't require you to send them your differential for rework? If so, I MUST HAVE ONE ASAP!!!
