I recently bought an 04 LSD. I thought I'd check it before installation. Upon disassembly I noted some wear on the two clutch plates. It seems Mazda treats the LSD as a part not an assembly. Does anyone know of a source for the plates? Thanks

I have a complete low mileage OE LSD I'll sell you, swapped it out with an aftermarket one, maybe 5000 miles tops on it

I thought there were no clutch in OEM LSD?

There are two friction surfaces per axle. One is machined into the splined hub that mates to the axle, the other is a ring shaped clutch plate made of a softer metal which fits loosely into the diff carrier. (See attached photos). Springs fitted between the two hubs apply pressure holding the hub and plate together.It's a relatively simple design and could easily be rebuilt if the parts were available Team RX8, what kinda money you looking for?
