Traction Concepts Limited Slip Conversion Kit installs into your non-LSD open differential, converting it into a proven and competitive limited-slip differential that enhances your traction needs. Traction Concepts 1.5-way LSD will considerably improve handling in daily-driven, street-strip warriors, or a full-race vehicle. All Traction Concepts products are constructed from only the highest-quality, hand-selected materials. With three decades of rigorous professional performance testing (street, drag racing, rally racing, hill climb, driving on dirt trails, skid pad testing, and testing in rain and snow, drift, and more), we have fine-tuned each application through specific heat-treating and Rockwell testing to achieve maximum performance and reliability. Each Traction Concepts LSD Kit is assembled with pressure-tested matched sets of progressive-rate springs to achieve equal load distribution to the disc plates, which dramatically enhances reliability and performance. With such a passion for perfection, Traction Concepts is confident that when you choose our TC Limited Slip Conversion Kit, you are choosing, by far, the best limited slip conversion kit on the market.

5 of 5 nice unit August 17, 2022
Reviewer: craig kovaly from Girard, PA United States  
so far so good! install was really quite simple. I was able to use a surface grinder to remove the required amount of material from the gears and everything went together relatively easy. if it performs as advertised I'll probably be purchasing another 1 for another car. .... time will tell!

4 of 5 As advertised August 1, 2021
Reviewer: Edward Walsh from Dowagiac , MI United States  
Didn’t come with the updated green springs as advertised it does work. Still a one wheel peel in first gear, then both wheels spin in 2nd gear. Would still recommend.  Would take a little more time on grinding gears down next time and using feeler gauges for the recommended clearance. So other than not having the other spring set I’m pleased.

Reply: The "updated green springs" is the upgrade for the "Base Series" line that does not apply to the "Xtreme" line assigned to the Cavalier Limited Slip Conversion Kits. So what you ordered is essentially an upgraded kit to the green spring upgrade Base Series we offer.
Additionally, the Green Spring Upgrade is installed into the Base Series kits before going out.
We appreciate your comment and time for feedback. On the performance side, our LSD Conversion kits engage when hp and torque is applied, and maybe there was not enough power when testing in first gear.
