What is the advantage of a multi-plate clutch system in an LSD?

This means it can effectively transfer power to the wheel with the most traction, improving acceleration and stability, especially during hard cornering or when encountering uneven surfaces.

Does this differential come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, this OS Giken Super Lock LSD comes complete with heavy-duty half-shafts. This ensures you have a comprehensive package designed to work together for optimal performance and simplified installation.

About this part

Product Details

The OS Giken Super Lock Limited Slip Differential (LSD) for your 1997-2007 Chevrolet Corvette manual transmission is built with a unique multi-plate clutch system. This design allows for a significant amount of torque bias, meaning it can send a lot of power to the wheel with the most grip. Unlike some other LSDs, the Super Lock system is designed to engage smoothly during normal driving but lock up firmly under acceleration, providing improved traction and stability when you need it most. This unit comes complete with heavy-duty half-shafts, ensuring a comprehensive upgrade for your drivetrain.

OS Giken is known for its well-built performance drivetrain components, and this LSD is no exception. The Super Lock mechanism uses a series of clutch plates that are actuated by a cam system. This system is engineered to provide a progressive lock-up, which helps prevent wheel hop and improves the car's handling characteristics, especially during aggressive driving or cornering. The inclusion of the half-shafts means you're getting a complete package designed to work together seamlessly, simplifying installation and ensuring optimal performance right out of the box. This is a serious upgrade for any C5 or C6 Corvette owner looking to maximize their car's traction and put the power down effectively.

When installing a high-performance differential like this, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding fluid types and break-in procedures. This will help ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your new OS Giken LSD.
