My opinion is that once you drop the diff and open it up. You're better off installing a proper LSD. Because you're already there. I have an OS Giken 1.5 way set to 70 percent lock. Held in place with a SPL solid diff bushing and a Bell diff brace.
Did you set the OS Giken LSD to 70% by yourself? I thought it comes with 100% lock only and can't be adjusted by ourselves unless sending back to OS Giken.
