    Gear ratios will change your mpg...however there is a happy medium. If the ratio is to high your mpg will suffer for city driving since your engie will hard to work extra hard to accelerate, if ratio is to small engine will work to hard at higher speeds. The sweet spot is somewhere in between. Unless you have changed tire size (diameter), which has the same affect, Isuzu probably did a pretty good job testing and optimizing this

    As far as I know all LSDs use a clutch system.

    I know of at least 5 popular types:

    Viscous coupler (sealed clutch)
    Clutches
    Torsen/quaffe (gears)
    Electronic (similar to TOD)
    Block inset (forget what it is called, but they are popular to convert open diff to LSD)
    96 Eclipse Spyder GSX (already turbo, AWD swap)
    93 Eagle Summit AWD (4G63 turbo swaps)

    I so want to rebuild the LSD. if I could find clutches I would do it.
    lets go back to the origenal question. anyone know where to get replacement clutches for the LSD for the facotry diff?

    found this on another thread

    I found the clutch discs for the rear end that I have been wanting to rebuilt looks like around $90 for new friction discs and clutches!
