Default Non Slip Differential.

Just wondering if anyone here put one in on there neon? was it hard to do? or fairly easy for someone who is mechanically inclined? And last, was it worth it?

VERY MUCH WORTH IT.

I've currently got a PG, they are a bit of a pain to get in but not too difficult with the right tools. And they are definitely worth the money. I know a few people with Quaiffes who swear by them and I know a lot of people with Phantom Grips.

Well considering you have to remove the stock differential and put the LSD in it shouldn't take you any more than maybe 2 hours. However if you have no experience with working on tranny's add a few more hours.

Just curious: Was LSD ever a MOPAR option for the Neon or aftermarket only?

No. It was never an option from Mopar. The only car that I know of that now comes with a Quaiffe LSD is the SRT-4 from the factory.

You have a phantom grip squee? If so, just curious why that one is so much less than the quaife. Shed some light sir, you seem to know plenty.

That's the Phantom Grip. Basically, its two hunks of aluminum sandwitched together with springs in between it. there are a few different spring rates, Green, Yellow (also known as Gold) and Red. The Red springs are close to stock, Green is for track use and are only good for a few thousand miles, and the Gold is the street/strip rate. The Gold is what most people buy since the Green are damn near impossible to get and the Red is just a little better than stock. basically what it does is the diff pin goes through the middle of this and is pretty much locked which creates you limited slip.



And this one is the Quaiffe. As you can see the Quaiffe is an acutal differential not a block of aluminum. The reason why this is so much mroe expensive is because you are replacing the entire differential not just putting a piece of metal around your diff.


Both are good but apparent;y the Quaiffe is going to be better but there aren't many people who can fork out the $1200 for it so they opt for the less priced PG.
