As long as you have a plan to test and set it. I expect it will be like any other ring/pinion setup except the pinion depth cannot be adjusted.

Backlash is very easy to check. I use something similar to this to set up gears on non-transaxles. Im pretty sure it will work for a porsche box. There r even cheaper mag base arms but it may be hard to find a good surface under the car.

Hoping this project would be smooth sailing but it looks like I’ve run into an issue. After the recent conversations here t about mesh/ alignment and stuff, decided to take some measurements and found some issues. I’ll be calling Matt to see how I can proceed. I like to be positive and this is still progress and is hopefully getting us closer to a solution.

That's unfortunate. What's wrong?

Never noticed this thread before. Hope you solve the issue as I would be interested in one unit as well.

That's a bugger, a machined solution, or no?

Machined solution will be necessary. Spoke to Guard yesterday, sending him pics and measures today. Hopefully it’s something that can be done.

There's probably enough meat on that flange to make it work; fingers crossed!

We shall see. Initial measurements and pictures have been submitted. I’ll post an update when I have one. Hope everyone is having a great summer!

Did the front LSD give you a noticeable improvement? On what exactly? Wondering because this could be an option as well for my tip
