OS Giken Super Lock LSD for Ford 8.8" 31-Spline (25/35-336-10-10s 4-D)
Experience the ultimate in traction and control with the OS Giken Super Lock LSD. After more than four years of research and development, OS Giken created a revolutionary limited-slip differential capable of housing up to 28 friction plates nearly twice as many as most competitors.
his allows the Super Lock LSD to achieve true 100% lock in a progressive, smooth, and ultra-quiet manner, making it ideal for both street driving and serious racing applications. The patented lock timing system, combined with a miniaturized pressure ring and spline-through-side-gear design, delivers exceptional performance while maintaining excellent everyday drivability.
Whether you're carving canyons, launching at the drag strip, or navigating wet roads, the OS Giken Super Lock LSD provides superior traction without the harshness or noise associated with traditional clutch-type LSDs.
Key Features
- Up to 28 Friction Plates – Nearly 2x the capacity of most competitors for true 100% lock
- Progressive & Smooth Locking – Patented lock timing system for quiet, predictable engagement
- Miniaturized Pressure Ring – Allows more friction plates while maintaining compact fitment
- High-Grade Materials – Chemically heat-treated components and raw-forged gears for maximum durability
- Billet LSD Case – Machined from a single piece for superior strength and uniformity
- Low Preload with Full Lock – Feels like an open diff during normal driving but locks 100% under load
- No Break-In or Rebuild Required – Precision manufacturing eliminates the need for initial break-in
- Fully Tunable – Adjustable initial torque, lock progression, and ramp angles

Differentials
Differentials distribute engine torque between drive wheels, allowing them to rotate at different speeds through corners while maintaining traction. Upgrading from a factory open differential to a limited-slip or locking differential is one of the most impactful drivetrain improvements you can make for towing, off-roading, drag racing, or any application where both wheels need to work together under load.Popular Differential UpgradesTop upgrades include Eaton Detroit Locker and Eaton Truetrac limited-slip units for GM, Ford, Dana, and Chrysler axles, ARB Air Lockers for Jeep and truck off-road applications, and OS Giken Super Lock LSD units for JDM performance platforms. Locker conversions for Dana 44 and Dana 60 front axles are essential for serious rock crawling, while Truetrac helical LSDs deliver traction improvements without aggressive locking behavior for street and tow applications.What is the difference between a locker and a limited-slip differential?A locking differential ...
