Not necessarily, mine had virtually no wear. If it is worn, you can machine down the case or put in oversize washers ($30) to make up the difference.

sweet, i just ordered my correct LSD from 915 Racing. Should be a 3.909 ratio, can't wait to throw it all together. Luckily I have a few local guys that can do my backlash....Y8s and Rappadan.

Going to be a nice season this year, im going to abuse the crap out of it.

Yeah, but the thing is, if you're going to take the entire thing apart, you might as well replace the washers and friction discs anyway.

yeah i thought about that as i did more research....I'm going to see if my other buddy can't do that as well or might just stick with the miata ring-gear and call it a day.
