Just to let Members know that we have had Quaife develop their LSD's for the steel bodied and Ally bodied XK8/R
This should also fit the V8 XJ8/R as well
This is a vast improvement on the standard 'Open diff'

Hi Norman,
I agree that traction, or lack of it, is a real pain for the XK range. Prior to fitment of the current electronically controlled diff fitted to the 5 litre cars Jaguar always claimed that a std LSD promoted too much understeer and ruined the handling. Having tried a DB7 (with LSD) back to back with my XK8 I can understand the comment from Jaguar. How have you found the handling with the quaife device? Mike.
