id advise against a spool

as it can be daangerous and illegeal in some states

there could be a number of reasons for it slipping

old oil simple to drain and replace
use the penrite limslip 80w oil it is blue and awesome!

a simple rebuild of the clutch and cones could cost way less than a mini spool

Its a Borg Warner,

Surely you could go to the commodore forums and get one cheap from a drift damaged wogbox?

Another vote for don't do it.

If you still want one, You may have to get a single spinner hemisphere for it.

Also, a Mini spool only costs about $120, and will most likely void your insurance if you hit something.

I believe BTR was branched out from Borg Warner in the 70's

either way, Borg Warner pwns j00

Mate, spools are illegal in all states, and they also void your insurance if found, just change the diff oil, chances are it hasnt been done and should fix the LSD
