Default Another LS400 LSD Question

Hi, I've done a search on LSDs for the LS400 and read the 17 threads, but still haven't seen an answer whether there are aftermarket LSDs for the LS400, specifically the first gen (1990). Someone mentioned a RMM carrier (?) and others have mentioned some model Supra. Would really appreciate any information anyone has regarding aftermarket LSDs or where I can find info on the RMM carrier or specific model Supras. Thanks in advance

No their is no LSD for an LS400 , not for any year as it was mentioned in the other thread.
You should have responded in the previous thread rather than starting a new one as it is the same topic.

Sorry if I offended you by posting a new thread, but I don't think you read my question. Of the 17 other threads with this topic (which I searched for and read), none really answered the question of "aftermarket" LSDs. I'm not sure what thread it is that I was supposed to post in, but if it was the latest one, the question in that thread was whether there was an LSD that came with the LS 400. That was not my question. Mine had to do with aftermarket.

Your not offending me in any way .It just makes it hard to reference the same subject if you have to look somewhere else for the similar answer.
Its like a library , you would not keep 5 versions in different places you would keep each revision in the same place to be easily referenced.
It is just being practical .

actually from my personal ufc10 advisor you can install a lsd from a super coupe 300 or get a quaife. but the quaife is much more expensive. so if youd like a cheap lsd get one from a super coupe.

notice that the question has been answered several times in this thread alone.
