    Anyone have experience with the MFactory 5 speed front LSD?

    I picked up an MFactory front LSD for my 5 speed.

    They seem to have a better reputation than the OBXs but worse than the Quaife.

    Anyone have actual experience with them?

    IE should be looking to tear it down and replace the washers and bolts alla the OBX?

    Thank,

    Be well

    I've had an MFactory LSD in my Acura Integra race car for years. It works great. They are actually part of Synchrotech Transmissions, who rebuilt my Acura tranny and installed the M-Factory LSD during the process. They did great work.

    I bought the OBX and a $35 rebuild kit for it with new spring washers and case bolts. Most people have reported being happy with them after reassembling them because they find the issues to be with the quality of the internal spring washers and the torque of the case.

    Haven't run mine yet though so I can't confirm personally.
