Electric Buggy Build: Installing A Limited Slip Differential Conversion Kit

Day 1 of reassembly after painting. The first thing I needed to do before the wheels could go back on the electric buggy was to install the differential. But I needed to make a modification to it that I didn't have the chance to do in the previous drivetrain video. In this video I show how I installed a poor man's limited slip differential kit in the Honda CR-V open differential that I'm using for the electric buggy. If you don't know what a limited slip differential is or how it works, check out the video below from Lesics:

This modification works like a clutch pack to cause both rear wheels to lock up like a solid rear axle and dig in for more traction if one tire starts to spin too much or I want to fool around and do some donuts, but it'll also allow the differential to function like an open diff so that each wheel can turn at different speeds when cornering normally to prevent understeering. I had to do some light grinding and sanding on the gear faces to make things work, but only needed to remove ~0.2-0.3mm so there's no risk of weakening them, but if you do this then keep in mind that the device works by gripping against the bearing faces, so the flatter they are, the better.
