Bawwxay Member 60 Member For: 2y 7m 20d Posted 07/02/25 11:48 AM Share Posted 07/02/25 11:48 AM (edited) Now after much searching and research, I can’t find a definitive answer as to whether a 2005 BA MK|| XR6 that from factory opted with a 3.45 LSD is a M78 31 or 28 spline or an M86 from The XR6 turbos and xr8’s. the current LSD pegs but when on the hoist spins both in the same direction under no load and is in tip top shape. A definitive answer would be mint! Because I’m buying a Truetrac but need to know which one! 🤟 Edited 07/02/25 11:50 AM by Bawwxay Wrong info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawwxay Member 60 Member For: 2y 7m 20d Posted 07/02/25 10:15 PM Author Share Posted 07/02/25 10:15 PM I definitely know that the XR6 N/A’s came with an M78 open centre, the difficult question to answer is whether when ‘rarely’ optioned for the LSD out of the factory, did they just change the centre of said M78 or just whack an M86 straight out of the XR8’s into them?
