so heres the scenario.. i have a 2jz 240 wich will have a t74...yada yada its gonna put down ovr 700rwhp. i picked up a q45 rear end and hubs just for the gearing...i also ordered a s15 hlsd with shaft. i noticed that the when i took it apart the ring gear has 13mm bolts. took one off my old diff and theyre 12mm bolts. will i still be able to use the s15 lsd...??

Or cut some adapters from copper tubing.

Yeah i think the thread size is the same just the shank is different, so you can make an adapter for them, buy new bolts, or some people just use the 12mm bolts.

I wouldn't do that though..

i swapped my s15 hlsd into my open differential and reused the bolts. no problems

there you go, just reuse the bolts.
