Ah, thanx for the input guys.
I dont feel anything for modifying volvo 240 axles, that isnt even a transaxle is it?
If the number of splines (teeth) on the axle input shafts (into sides of diff) is the same on this 240 diff as it is on the 360 diff then it is more convenient to just modify the housing (instead of the bolts, which might not even come off again judging from the picture). It looks like there is more than enough metal that can be taken off.

I need to get myself a spare 340 1.4 diff (3.88 ratio) to play around with. It would be interesting to measure the diff up and see how it compares to my AE86 LSD's. I think I might weld an open diff just for drifting fun if I can find a cheap one. Wrecking yards around here can get very unreasonable with prices lately (70 euro's for a diff from a car worth 200 euro's in reasonable condition over here).

Are there enough of these 240 LSD's around in sweden? I was told by some guys rallying a 740 that the clutch type LSD was very rare.

Would you mind telling me what has been changed on this diff? I can imagine that the ring and pinion must have been switched over to the 360 housing, but otherwise?
BTW, would you still be able to reach decent top speeds with a 4.88 end reduction (final ratio)? The 360 has 3.44 stock I think.

It's pretty sure that there have been some rare versions with LSD fitted, they are probably not very common. They even have a little note about it in the 360 cup rules stating it's not allowed to use on of those LSD's. Do you have more info on the 240 diff? What would I need to adjust to fit one of those?

Drivlina/Växellåda / 360 LSD?

Hello,

My name is Ivan, I'm a dutch guy with a 360 that I use for trackdays. Last sunday I was
driving the car on Zandvoort circuit for the first time this year, and it turns out there are a few problems with rear traction in some corner transitions. We use Koni red shocks all around, and lowered front suspention (cut 1 coil, soon to be replaced with springs from dutch v360cup)...riding on semislicks.
I've heard that volvo fitted 360's with an optional LSD in sweden and switzerland,
are there any of those LSD's still around? We are fitting the car with a intercooled B21 ET + megasquirt this summer and coul really use an lsd to keep the car going at corner exits. It would also be fun to be able to drift the 360 ( got directed to this site by Kristian with the ae86).
If you guys could help me out with some information I would be very gratefull.

Kind regards,

Ivan
