Torsen LSD Swap and Buildup
 
So, it's been awhile since I've been on here. But in conservation of time, I'll just say that I'm gonna try and be back on as time allows.
So, I finally found a Torsen locally and picked it up. I pulled the housing off it and blasted all the gunk off. Put a few coats of paint on it and am in the process of putting it back in. Going to be doing a few other lil' projects at the same time so I'll try and keep this updated.

Installing:
Torsen LSD w/ new Energy Suspension Bushings
ATE Super Blue Brake Fluid
Earl's Speed Bleeders

Misc. Painting:
LSD (obviously)
Rear Panel
Mirrors
Calipers

I filled in the holes left behind from the badge on the back so it needed some primer.
