Anyone installed Renntech LSD

I just pulled the trigger on renntech lsd.
I need to pull out stock differential and ship it to renntech, then they will swap the units and ship it back to me.

Anyone done this?

I was thinking about it but its 3600 for parts then 750 for labor additional to renntech and that doesnt include shipping and my mechanic. So I m just punching myself for not getting one from a dealer which was $2500 option!!!

Who said you have to pay 750 for labor to renntech? I wasnt told that.
What i was told is you remove your diff and send it to them, they make whatever modifications they need and ship it back to you for the cost of the lsd + shipping.
I am doing the removal and installation.

Thanks for heads up

Try a Quaife instead. Installed price won't be that much more than the factory option at $2500! And it won't wear out!

You need to contact Kleeman, given you are in the USA. Contact Brandon bg@kleemannusa.com. But you'll need to tell him the VIN of your car. I might be mistaken, but I can't see what car you have!

Regards, Kevin.

Thanks Kevin.

One more question, i see that this lsd is made for w211 platform. Does this unit fit right in w212 or needs modifications (if yes, what kind please)?

Sorry, my mistake. I normally like to work with a VIN. Maybe you could PM me that? This should be the correct part number.

No modifications required.
