Two lumps of metal and some springs. Even if they were a good idea in general they would be a bad idea in a BE box due to the weakness of the pin holding the standard diff together. Removing that weakness is a big secondary benefit to fitting an LSD to a BE box so an LSD that retains it probably wont last long under the extra stress.1

'Plate'-type differential

Lada Samara

A plate LSD from Lada Samara fits in be3 gearbox.2 There are couple of more issues, including the absence of a speedo drive.

  • Splines match.
  • Diff bearing inner diameter is 35mm (Lada Samara) vs 38 mm (BE3). This can be fixed by having couple of bushings made with an inner diameter a fraction under 35 mm, heated and then installed.
  • It is also necessary to use a use thick washer under right side diff bearing.
  • Final drive and diff must be machined to center the final drive and to bring it to the right position; new holes must be drilled into FD.
