Cusco RS LSD Break-In and Oil Change Interval Recommendations

I have a Cusco RS plate type LSD with 4.56 ring and pinion which I am going to swap for the standard unit shortly.
Does anyone know the brake in procedure and oil change intervals for this?
Any help is appreciated - Thanks

You'll need to ask whoever is installing to check the documentation for it, it'll probably involve tight full lock figure 8 driving for 20-30 minutes or alternatively driving normally with gradual acceleration for the first 500 miles. Regardless after 500 miles its best to change the fluid, then go by the normal intervals.


Also expect it to do that classic clacky noise during the break in.

Thanks for that. I have done some further research and most people say to do slow figure 8s for 20-30 minutes then to change the oil after, which is probably what I will do.



Does anybody know if the oil change interval is any different to the standard diff, Toyota says to change every 45000 kms.
