What is the benefit of a Twin Clutch System (TCD) LSD?

A Twin Clutch System (TCD) LSD, like this OS Giken unit, allows for a wide range of adjustable locking force. This means you can customize how aggressively the differential distributes power between the wheels, tailoring it to your specific driving needs and conditions.

Does this LSD come with everything needed for installation?

This listing is for the OS Giken 140mm TCD LSD unit itself. Installation typically requires additional components such as differential fluid, seals, and potentially mounting hardware, which are not included. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide or a professional mechanic for a complete parts list and procedure.

What is the recommended break-in procedure for this differential?

OS Giken units generally require a specific break-in procedure to ensure the longevity of the clutch plates. This usually involves a period of gentle driving with limited hard acceleration or cornering, followed by a fluid change. Always refer to the manufacturer's official documentation for the precise break-in steps.

Product Details

If you're looking to put more power down to the pavement during spirited driving or track events, a limited-slip differential (LSD) is a key component. This OS Giken 140mm TCD LSD is specifically designed for your 1999-2003 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG, helping to improve traction and put that supercharged V8's torque to better use. It works by biasing torque to the wheel with more grip, preventing excessive wheelspin and allowing for a more stable launch and better acceleration out of corners.

OS Giken is well-known for its robust and high-performance drivetrain components. This particular LSD features a Twin Clutch System (TCD) design, which allows for a wide range of locking force adjustment. This means you can fine-tune how aggressively the differential locks up, tailoring it to your driving style and the specific demands of the road or track. The unit is built with durable materials to handle the stresses of performance driving, ensuring it can keep up with the power of your E55 AMG. Installation involves replacing the factory open or limited-slip differential with this unit, requiring specialized tools and knowledge of drivetrain components.

When installing a new differential, it's important to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure to ensure the longevity of the clutch plates. This OS Giken LSD is a significant upgrade for any E55 AMG owner looking to maximize their vehicle's performance potential. It's designed to fit directly into the factory differential housing, simplifying the installation process compared to custom setups.
