Default Thinking of getting a Torsen LSD 3.69 ratio from a Supra for the Soarer

I found a guy selling the LSD alone for $500.. I am wondering who has experiences with this LSD and if the price is good for what he is asking?

Just make sure it's not a 6 speed LSD because you will get stuck with it if you don't have a 6 speed housing. the 6 speed stock LSDs goes for 100-150 on here and SF.

The Auto is a 10 bolt and goes for 700-1000 box depending on where and who you buy it from.

so 500 is a great deal if it's in good condition and if its an auto.

The 3.69 gear ratio IIRC Only came in the LS400, not in the Supra or the soarer.

Just verified with the seller that the ratio is actually 3.76.
He said that I need to fit the bracket from the Soarer so it will fit my driveshaft, is that correct?

Yes the TT auto is 3.76, so are you getting the whole diff or just the LSD?
If you get the just the LSD you will need the following parts to install it in your Differential
90366-50033 Bearing x2
90301-96003 Ring x2
90311-47008 Seal x2
00295-00103 FIPG
I can't find the part number for the bolts , but you will need (10) new bolts, and the diff additive.

IS the TT Auto torsen still available to buy? And at what price? Or is it best just to go with the TRD at that point?

It's too exepnsive lol , you can buy (2) TRD Auto LSDs and have them instyalled in 2 different pumpkin and still come out cheaper lol.
The cheapest alternative is TRD.
