Hi Daryl.....
re '....including my own fnt  and rear locker LSD's"

"locker limited slip differential" ?

the reason I ask is a guy just contacted me about putting a limited slip in
the front diff of his syncro. He talked to you too I believe.
I havn't heard of an LSD for a syncro front diff - just locking front diffs,
solid shaft instead of VC, etc.

so what's the deal ? .....
does a limit slip differential set up exist for a syncro front diff, and
does it work well etc ?
and did you really mean "locker limited slip differential" ?

thanks !
Scott
