I searched through the archives and couldn't find the answers. I know many of you have converted to the SLP Torsen carrier so you might be able to answer a question. I want the HD unit myself.

I know the Torsen doesn't use a cross pin. How are the c-clips retained on the axle without one?

I have the HD Torsen, it uses a block instead of a pin. Same idea, it has a bolt that locates it in the center of the carrier. This has the effect of holding the axles in place such that the c-clips can't fall out.
