The 4 bolt rear diff comes out of 90'-94' TEL (talon, eclipse, laser). At least the ones that came stock with awd.

The 90 to 92 (and a half) model year t/e/l cars had three bolt rear ends.
They may or may not be equipped with a lsd viscous coupler.

The 92 and a half to 94 t/e/l cars were equipped with four bolt lsd's.

No worries!

The interchange is a little weird.

The important thing is that you know what you;re buying, and why.

Some folks just want the lsd for loose surfaces/snow use

... and some folks make so much power they break things ...

Those folks are best served upgrading to the four bolt units, as they have upgraded c.v's/axles.

You can save on shipping if you just buy the axles and the carrier. The case and ring/pinion are the same.
Don't forget the axle cups that mount to the hubs.
