I see that you used the 240sx 49:12 ring gear on the vlsd. I still have a KA and want to go up to Big Bear (7000ft) so I want more torque going up the mountain.. I got a J30 diff from the yard and want to take the vlsd add a shim and swap the ring gears and install it into my 240sx carrier. Do to the the J30 47:12 ring gear being fatter the vlsd would be shimmed (bearing and race shims) over like the open (240sx skinny ring gear) diff. My question is once the diff is installed will the axle output shafts line up with the snap rings in the vlsd? or would they be not lined up due to the vlsd being shimmed over like the open diff because of the skinnier ring gear?
