That's something I considered back when I was developing the car. Just use two speed adjusters. Or possibly fab two toothed wheels at 51 teeth instead of 48 but its not exactly an integer conversion. I really would need a wheel that's 51.08 teeth .

Question is how much error will the TCU handle can I get away with 51 teeth. Or I could actually fab a 51.08 tooth wheel but would the TCU hiccup every revolution of the wheel when theirs a short tooth.

The only issue I have now is that I have all the hardware necessary to build a limited slip diff in either 2.65 or 2.82. So this thought bubble just happened to cross my mind. It looks so much like the one that's in my car now.
