=== PART I === Since most R200V differentials are short-nosed (unless you have the '88SS R200V), you will need to swap their internals into your Z31 long-nose housing. https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/images/VLSDinstall/casedifferencefull.png The process of swapping the VLSD carrier into the Z31 housing is simple and has been outlined before. Bemis’ webpage has some excellent information on this swap: [http://www.zrelated.com/VLSD.htm zrelated.com/VLSD.htm] Follow your FSM for removal and installation procedures. The swap consists of installing your Z31 ring gear onto the VLSD carrier and then installing the VLSD carrier into your differential housing. Be sure to get the differential shimmed correctly—getting it wrong means noise and excessive wear. If you don’t know what you’re doing, take the differential to a qualified driveline shop. I decided to disassemble everything and clean before reassembly. New gaskets and seals were installed where necessary. Here are a few pictures of the process: https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/images/VLSDinstall/Shortcaseinsidefull.png https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/images/VLSDinstall/Ringoutfull.png https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/images/VLSDinstall/Internalsfull.png
