Bought a Turbo S box with about 120k miles on it for $1500 back in November-ish of last year. Mileage was verifiable (RL members car). The gearbox in my '88 right now was rebuilt and currently has about 40k-ish miles on it. It came with the factory cooler, but no LSD.
I was going to buy a Guards diff and install it in my current box, but decided to buy the Turbo S box for the benefit of the hardened gears and r/p. I wanted the stronger gearset mostly because i was thinking of eventually putting in a V8.

I just removed a 951 non-LSD with oil cooler from a parts car and will be putting the oil cooler on my 85.5 NA 951 turbo tranny, which has an LSD. I'm going to add the oil cooler to the LSD turbo tranny and sell it. I will keep the transmission in the car so someone will be able to test drive it before buying it. Anyone interested in the Seattle, WA area?

I paid around $2K for mine a couple of years ago. Plus the cost of installation was another couple hundred. I was able to sell the factory LSD that came out for a good bit and that helped the cost.
And I bought an 89 na trans with a factory LSD last fall for $1200, but that was from a friend.

I mean I have a stock turbo LSD trans on my car, I was thinking not changing the whole thing, but to change the diff when I rebuild it.

I have these and don't have the car.

Also, the oil cooler pump drive gear is different between an open diff and an LSD, they are not compatible.
You will need to do some homework before considering your options. Best to leave them alone and sell as-is.

the transmission I just put in my car apparently has lsd I haven't checked the code yet to see if it does (the wrecker told me it was led) I paid 630 bucks for it (including shipping 570 without shipping).

Jack up rear of car, Grasp one rear wheel and spin. Does other wheel spin in the same direction at approximately the same speed?
Yes? LSD.
No? Nope.
