Yesterday I took the time to find out with what axle and diff my Roadster 3.7 is eqipped with. So far no surpises, It's the Borg-Warner BTR Spicer Dana... axle. The type is MRA0031, the ratio is 3,73:1. I heard, this is the only choice for the 3.7, true? But I thought, all Roadsters do now have the LSD?? The Label on my axle says STD, not LSD as it should.
Can I trust the label, no LSD?
Your comments are welcome...
Regards

Jack the rear and turn one wheel (gearbox in neutral). If the other wheel turns the same way its LSD. If it turns the opposite way or doesn't turn at all it isn't.

If you have time, and know, please tell me where to look for a list of wheels[/color] that will go on to the original spindles that have been installed on a stock 2015 Roadster with 3.7 engine.

Erm  - the current Roadster 3,7 should have a 3,07:1 (according to current Morgan handbook) ratio WITH LSD (or other mind-widening ingredients in addition to make the sheer power groundable) ! IF yours has a 3,73:1 fitted, not only is your first gear useless (as on std. 3,7s), but so are 2nd (& 3rd, ...)....
It doesn´t matter how fast it becomes, but how it becomes fast.  2015 Roadster 3.7
