Blackline HLF012 Ford Atlas Axle Limited Slip Differential Installation Kit

£550.00


Product Details

Transform your vehicle's traction, cornering exit speeds, and power delivery with the ultimate rear-end upgrade package. This comprehensive bundle combines the race-proven Blackline Ford Atlas Axle helical limited slip differential with the exact professional-grade installation components required to perform a clean, leak-free direct carrier swap.

The heart of this kit is the Blackline Helical LSD. Unlike traditional plate-style differentials that wear out over time, its gear-type design provides smooth, progressive torque biasing that dynamically channels power to the wheel with the most grip. It delivers maximum traction without the harsh chattering or aggressive binding typical of traditional track differentials.

To ensure your installation is bulletproof, the package includes a premium matched pair of Blackline crown wheel bearings to completely refresh your carrier unit journals, plus an advanced Syntheseal back cover gasket rated up to 180°C to lock in your gear oil and withstand demanding motorsport heat cycles.
