I'm ordering a new LSD for my MG maestro 1600 R series 83 Y. What size crown wheel will it have? 2 are quoted for the vw 020 box, 111mm and 109mm, which size is the maestro box?

I would suggest that you speak to the LSD supplier as the size reference is in relation to early VW Golf, Jetta or Scirrocco models. While the gearbox model number may be the same on the MG the internals and final drive will probably be different. At a guess, the sizes could relate to the crown wheel diameter. The different sizes indicating a different ratio, but that is only a guess.Membership Secretary

Originally posted by Mr bump View PostAll, yes the LSD bolt plate can carry a 111mm crown that's already in the box or a 109mm. That measurement is the internal measurement of the existing CW. Just wondered if anyone had that info.

FYI the workshop manuals (both factory and Haynes) dont carry that detail so it can only be from someone who has been down the same pathMembership Secretary
