Default LSD Install

Hi Everyone,

I have a 92 SC300 and I am getting ready to purchase a KAAZ LSD,(they are stuck in customs ) and trying to find out if there is a good shop anyone can reccomend (possibly had experience with) that can install it. I live in Sacramento, but willing to drive a bit.

Thanks in advance

Did you get your answer? I'm looking for someone with experience at installing this on my gs430. Internal swap. I'm also in Sacramento.

DGR Fabrciation in Redwood City can do it... check out their website and give Dan a call let him know Jay sent you. They've worked on all the 2way diffs in my track cars in the past:



DGR did the 2way diff swap in both of those cars.

Since I drove all the way to fremont to get a tint, I can drive to redwood city or San Bruno to get a mod. Thanks for the Info guys! Still looking for suggestions...somewhere closer. I don't have an extra pumpkin lying around so the car will have to be dropped off...preferably somewhere close.

Please tell them you were referred through ClubLexus. We're trying to get these guys to sponsor a Sac meet in the future, so any business support by locals would be nice.

In the South bay, Exact Motorsports has probably installed more LSDs in Lexus than anyone else.

Jaws Gear off of Madison in Sacramento! I have a long time buddy who works there. Him and his manager are affiliated with the Supra Forums. They have been around for a while and do awesome work. You might remember their company car. The blue MKIII Supra that comes out to SILV every year. +1
