I got it from powerplay imports, as posted above:)

Also, they had it sitting there for a while (probably because the guy thought it was a 1 way, gotta love it when they dont quite know what they are looking at:D) - when I rang up I asked if he had a 2 way, he told me he only had a 1 way, but didnt want much for it, which for $350, even if it was a 1 way, was a bargain.

I dont think he has any more, but you could try. Do a search for contact details, as they have a website

yes, in the diff center. Its a bit hard to describe, but basically there is a key in the diff that will be different shapes. It works by pushing plates apart, that cause the clutches to engage.

the 1 way will be like a triangle, 1.5way will be like 2 triangles, but one side will be truncated, and a 2 way will be like two triangles with their bases together (like a square on its side)

Sorry its a bit hard to describe without a diagram.

I have posted this before but here goes again.

I had a standard GTS25t diff rebuilt by UAS a couple of years ago, it is a clutch pack LSD, it locks as soon as you put the boot in. As the rest of you have experienced when you do a tight turning circle and apply throttle one of the wheels skips and mine still does that after a couple of years of use.

It is the best investment i have made in my car, it saves on tyres like nothing else and through corners you can apply liberal amounts of throttle without ending up completely sideways coming out of the corner. In the wet it is magic as i was always spinning the wheels as soon as i came on boost before, now i have to floor it to spin the wheels.

I always got the impression that a mechanical diff is one of the worst things to use on a street car because it gives 100% lock when you apply the throttle whereas a clutchpack will still allow some slip (useful when you are cornering under power).

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
