Default re: *Needed* 20 to Pre-order Wavetrac LSD for SLK32/SRT-6

I was working on the srt6 diff today to get the C32 axle to work into the wavetrac,, ok i got it to work, a pic is worth 1000 words so read this, if u don't understand send me your questions, Here is what i did.
i removed the c-clip from the axle stub, and install a srt 6 spring clip ,,would not go into the gear(rear end) I then went to my guy he sold me some spring clips ,in pairs 4 different ones ,, the dia.of the stub axle shaft is 1.160 with a grove for the c-clipat 1.30 and .070 wide the srt spring clip is .078 but it was too tight it would not go into the rear. then i tried a spring clip that is .060 and about 1" circle ,i had to close it up until i had 1/4" gap ,this worked ok but i wanted less play of the axle in and out,, so i installed two of this .060 spring clips it worked good , but now i couldn't get the axle out of the rear,, i rented a slide hammer , and removed the axle in removing the axle it destroyed one of the spring clips,( bent it into a S . so i went back to the single spring clip .060 dis 1" circle and it seems to work good ,,yes there is a little play but i think it will be ok, i'm going back tomorrow to see what spring clips i can get, if it was my car i would install two of the .060 spring clips and install it ,knowing the rear will not brake i would leave it that way ,with the minimum play. , i will be calling Devin tomorrow and let him know what i have done ,,, i have been in touch with him for the last week or so on this. jim
