The glue is by far the worst.
Nice to see that even a fire doesn't remove it.

A rag soaked in xylene makes quick work of the adhesive.

So you're a gluten for punishment LOL

Cobalt, What the offset I need with narrow trailing arms? I'll try the glue trick tomorrow.

What sizes are you considering? The factory rear RS/RSR speedlines are 11ET5. you could go as wide as 12 but need to verify actual offset.

Thanks Anthony,
I'm not going crazy with the tire size. The previous owner already flattened the metal oil line running to the oil tank. I know it's oval. But this one looks flat.
I have the Original cups in 9's. But would need turbo trailer arms and turbo axels.
I'm considering a NA LSD 5 spd. This will be a street car.
What's the Approach with RH modifications.
Do guys just send out to Jim? I have metalguru's old wheels. They are incredible.

The factory LSD is not the best. I had to rebuild mine at 40k miles and again at 60k but some track miles. It is a single plate system. It does the job for street but just. Jim should be able to help you out nobody knows better. I am running spacers on my 11" rear Fikse's for now. I have to rebuild them to 12's and change inner and outer barrels to make it work. Right now my focus is on getting it running properly.

Dave, I won't catch you. I'm building 2.5 houses so this one will hang around.

guards gear can set you up with internals for the OEM lsd unit that will save a few bucks and add longevity.

Not for the 964 LSD only the 993 which is a superior forged unit vs cast iron. I believe Matt said he can modify them to use GT3 plates. He might do the 964 if you promise not to track it but don't hold me to it.

It is amazing how flimsy the tubs are when stripped like this.
