For anyone going to remove the drive shaft for any reason, careful using a 2” wrench. Proper size is 50mm and mine was so tight that i needed a 3’ pipe over the wrench just to loosen the red threadlocker. A 2” wrench (50.8mm) would’ve stripped the nut on my diff easily

With this video I was able to get my E92 335is open diff out and install my wavetrac LSD. This is a great tutorial! The 50mm nut loosening damn near required my full strength, this was a jack stand job so I think I wedged my knee under the wrench to break it loose. Also the final dropping of the pumpkin was super frustrating. Got it done though. Thanks.

Nice! You'll feel a big difference right off the bat, I can dip into the throttle twice as hard before it'll break traction under normal driving. It feels like the more you push it the better it works. I made a quick right hand turn this morning in the rain and I dipped pretty hard into the throttle and my traction control light didn't even flicker. Huge difference so far. Good luck!

You might think that if he can turn it by hand it's not going to do much, but the taper on the side gears and spider gears puts mechanical pressure on the clutches when power is applied. The clutches are quite small so it's not going to be as good as a real LSD.

Torque specs big 50mm nut to driveshaft.... 85nm/ 62 ft lbs.... blue lock tight on splines (see note below using 2" crowfoot wrench) Rear diff bushing... 21mm back bolt.... 121 ft lbs torque spec Front diff bushings bolts... 73 ft lbs 18mm exhaust hangars, just tight. Axle bolts... 52 ft lbs... blue locktight gear oil through fill hole and torque to 44.3 lb-ft with 14 mm male hex. Note: 50mm nut torque spec using 2" crawfoot wrench: The torque wrench was 15” long from center of wrench to center of hand grip. Crow’s foot has an extra 2.25”. the torque will be 15% high or 72.1 lb-ft. The point of the formula is I set the torque wrench at 54 lb-ft to get an actual of 62 lb-ft. Thank you Moosa aka Vehicular DIY for another amazing video! Just got quoted $1200 to install my new Wavetrac LSD... instead did it myself and all I spent was $15 for the Sunex crowfoot wrench and optional but I got a $130 trans lift from Harbor Freight.

A donut is not possible at all as it completely opens as soon as you start turning. Even if you get the wheels spinning first. Very disappointed

My follow up video will be pretty soon. I'm coding out the electronic diff locker in the DSC and the brake overheat protections as well. I haven't done any extensive testing yet but I've felt the DSC interfere which could be throwing everything off. What year is your car? Perhaps the E-diff is stepping in and not allowing the LSD to function as intended. I'm hoping that overall in a straight line it locks consistently. I plan to test that by seeing if I get consistent 60ft at the track hopefully in the sub 2 second mark. With the open diff I was all over the place, 2.3 to 2.6. If you were lucky and caught a good bit of track then the right wheel would spin less but the DSC was working halfway down the track.

I'm confused about the 50mm nut. Are the diffs different by year or engine? I ask bc I'm looking to buy one that needs to be towed and I'm hoping to disconnect the propshaft so that I can use a dolly to tow. I was under the impression that these use E Torx bolts.

How does the insert nut (the driveshaft nut) actually connect to the Diff Input Shaft? How does the spline on the Diff input shaft interface to the drive shaft. On M3, there are big flange but on this, it seems like the "insert nut" is the only thing that connects the driveshaft and the spline. Any idea what the torque spec on that insert nut? I'm replacing my pinion seal, so I would have to do this first.

I paid the XDelete software to flash my car to RWD only , but when I switch the DCS off and try drifting , the car does not slip like non of my previous BMW mentioned above. What is the difference ? WHat should I do to get it slipping day car.
