Description
The Ford Ranger PK/PJ & Mazda BT-50 DiscTrac LSD is a high-performance helical limited slip differential designed to improve traction, stability, and drivability both on and off the road. Whether your vehicle is used for daily driving, towing, touring and beach work, the DiscTrac LSD helps put power to the ground more effectively.
Unlike traditional clutch-style LSDs, the DiscTrac uses a patented helical gear design to automatically transfer torque to the wheel with the most grip. This provides smooth and predictable operation without clutch plates to wear out or require servicing.
Why Choose a DiscTrac LSD?
The DiscTrac Helical LSD is manufactured from forged billet 2MNCR5 material and features a seven-pinion helical gear design for excellent strength and durability. Under acceleration, the differential continuously biases torque to the tyre with the most traction, helping reduce wheel spin and improve vehicle control.
This makes the DiscTrac LSD an excellent upgrade for both standard and modified vehicles.

- Patented seven-pinion helical gear design

Benefits of a Helical LSD
A helical LSD operates automatically using internal gears rather than clutch packs. This results in quieter operation, reduced maintenance requirements, and predictable handling characteristics.
The DiscTrac LSD improves traction when one wheel begins to lose grip, helping maintain forward drive in challenging conditions. It also improves stability when accelerating out of corners and provides better control on loose or uneven surfaces.
For drivers looking for a reliable traction upgrade without the harsh engagement of a locker, the DiscTrac offers an excellent balance between performance and everyday drivability.
Applications
The DiscTrac LSD is suitable for a wide range of applications including:
- Daily driven vehicles
- Towing and work vehicles
- Touring and overland builds
- Beach and farm vehicles
