Who can make this happen?

buy the Mfactory helical when it finally comes out, like the rest of the world...


$600 lsd +300 bearings+ $30 shipping. & installation $$$$$ = Not happening for me anytime soon. There is a reason why I 'm asking this to the people that CAN. make this happen for us.


without checking the prices that are in the group buy....$579 diff, free freight, bearing,speed sensor and retainer $100, plus install cost and diff oil. pretty cheap compared to anything else out there.

I hear you, I still think swapping out the diff fluid is a cheaper alternative. It can be done and for under $300. That is the whole point of the thread, a cost effective option for those who don't want to spend $1000-$1200 installing a brand new diff. To be honest I was asking this question mainly to see if they could offer me the service and me alone. My car is a "street car" not a dedicated track car , I have no need for a expensive helicial diff. I have two spare visous fluid couplings here at my home I'm willing to send out on my own dime for test purposes too. I am. only waiting on reply from Mfactory.

The guys won't even come into the thread for a nay or yay, wow. Let's see what liberty gears can do for me. They are actually part of one of the fastest cars in this area right now.

" Viscous Diffs
The viscous differential also has interleaved plates, and in fact works because of the viscosity (internal friction) of the silicone fluid that fills the gaps between the plates. The plates therefore do not actually touch one another. The percentage of torque transfer varies with the difference in speed between the two wheels, partly as a result of the plate design and spacing, and partly because of a physical property of silicone fluid that it experiences virtually no change in viscosity when heated. If one wheel is rotating only a little faster than the other, only a little torque transfer occurs, when there is a big difference between the speeds of the two wheels, the viscous differential will transfer up to 95 percent of the torque to the wheel with traction. Because of the difficulties in handling the silicone fluid, servicing a viscous differential can be accomplished only with special equipment.*The silicone fluid is under pressure, and there is an air bubble of known (and controlled) volume included in the differential casing. Any deviation from the correct amount of pressure or air bubble volume can radically change the characteristics of the differential."

Nice try @TheSam

I think this is horse-beating territory, however.

It was no. BUT as usual you keep asking until someone agrees with you. That just isn't going to happen this time. Let's recap some highlights, shall we?

Finally someone posts so you will drop it.

First off it would be completely not coNpletely. At least use proper spelling if you are going to beg. More importantly, this is my first nominee for dumbest post of the year for 2015

People are checking in because your stupidity is epic and the responses can bring a few minutes of joy and sometimes even laughter to their day.

I heard Stark Industries created some of that new custom unobtanium fluid and would be making these available sometime late this summer.

The shear audacity you had to post in a vendor's section basically asking them to make something that should not be made only illustrates my previous points regarding your online behavior

Because there's no way you could have read it completely the first time

To be honest I didn't think it was a bad question to ask. M factory stated that they can do " Any thing " for US. I brought a idea to the table which I thought would be profitable for them,and beneficial for US. There will always be a market for full lsd's at the right price, now we are giving the guys with low budget options. The factory diff fluid wears out at 30K. There for there should be lots of life left to the internal componets of the viscous coupling. There for that explains it self. If that can't be done what about manufacturing JUST the viscous coupling it self?
