Hey guys

I'm getting really bad diff bounce in my 84 gazelle coupe,
suspension in the rear end is fairly good.

I'm wondering what it could be and what diff's can i fit straight into it & is there a lsd one?

Cheers

Sorry to sound stupid but wtf is diff bounce and im also guessing you dont have IRS (idependant rear suspension).

If you have the aus spec gazelle then you wont need lsd as you dont have enuff power and even with my CA18DET in my gazelle the stock diff does its job well in a straight line.

NO, solid rear...

Well, basically one wheel spins and the other bounces like 20cm off the ground, and if you let it go for too long you will snap the diff or tailshaft..

what diff can i use to replace it? what other model cars diffs fit in?

You need some shocks with a stiffer rebound.
