  1. The correct bulbs for gauge cluster

    Can't comment on the LED install. I bought regular bulbs for mine.
  2. 2G Drivetrain binding when turning (2g AWD)

    Just to update this thread for those having the same issue. Swapping out the viscous coupler fixed the problem. The car drives normally now.
  3. 2G Drivetrain binding when turning (2g AWD)

    Good question. How can I check this? I can say that when I was reassembling the transmission, it took some serious malletting to get it down low enough to reinstall the snap ring. Could this be a sign that the viscous coupler is failing?
  4. 2G Drivetrain binding when turning (2g AWD)

    All tires are the same size. I only got the car last December and it has always had this issue. Granted it's not a massive issue, but I would like to fix it to make the car more enjoyable to drive.
  5. 2G Drivetrain binding when turning (2g AWD)

    I removed the 8 bolts and popped off the diff cover. I removed and checked the pinion and spider gears and the housing. Everything spins freely and there were no visible welds.
  6. 2G Drivetrain binding when turning (2g AWD)

    Hi all,I am having an issue on my GSX. When turning at low speeds, the drivetrain binds up as if the center diff is welded. This obviously makes navigating parking lots pretty tricky.I recently had the transmission apart to replace the 3-4 shift fork and checked the center differential...
  7. Gearset won't spin after torquing 36mm nuts

    In my case, it just slid right off after I took the 36mm nut off. But I know some people use a gear puller on the intermediate 5th, since it has a groove to accommodate one.
  8. Gearset won't spin after torquing 36mm nuts

    A little bit of rubber malletting on the bearing plate got it off no problem.
  9. Gearset won't spin after torquing 36mm nuts

    That's exactly what happened and I'm an idiot. As soon as I figured it out, your reply came through. Thank you very much
  10. Gearset won't spin after torquing 36mm nuts

    Hi all,I'm replacing my 3-4 shift fork and I got most of the transmission back together. I just finished torquing the 36mm nuts (109 ft-lbs)on the intermediate and input shafts and was about to put the end case on. At this moment, I noticed that I am no longer able to spin the gears by hand...
  11. The correct bulbs for gauge cluster

    Just about every thread that you search will tell you to get bulb 74 for your little Toshiba V-2 sockets for your gauge cluster.This is not the correct bulb size. Do not waste your time buying the 74 bulb.A 74 bulb will fit VERY tightly into the socket, so tight that it will expand/swell the...
  12. Door Jam LSD sticker

    Does anyone know where to find these decals? They're obviously discontinued by the manufacturer so a replica will be the only option. I know some guys made replicas of these a few years ago, but I can't seem to find any.
