SPW Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I have a year 2000 1.6 Superlight, factory built and supplied with LSD from new. From background reading I'm assuming it will be a ZF differential but is that correct and is there an easy way to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted July 12, 2021 Area Representative Share Posted July 12, 2021 This page helps but does require the removal of a half shaft. http://www.mycaterham.com/66828/117416.htmlMaybe ask the Caterham Cars archivist?

SPW Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Thanks for the link. Is the Caterham Cars Archivist contactable by email or is it a phone call to Caterham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7 wonders of the world Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 If it is a ZF you also need to check it was set correctly for a 7 some ZF's came with incorrect rams and massive 65 lb/ft preload.Theres a correctly set one in for sale at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I think Ive got a ZF in my older K series - how do I check the preload on this diff without damaging it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
