J's LSD maintenance schedule??

I was wondering if you guys could tell me how often the differential oil on the J's Racing LSD needs to be changed?

And does the differential oil replace your transmission oil or do you still need both?

And if they don't replace eachother do you have to remove the transmission from the engine to replace the differential oil?

And how often do you have to repair/overhaul the J's racing?

Also do you know how the J's Racing maintenance schedule compares to the ATS Carbon LSD maintenance schedule?

I'm asking because i want an LSD mainly for street use, maybe drag/autox in a couple years and I've been looking at the Quaife LSD and although it sounds good it does have it's draw backs compared to a clutch type LSD, so I'm trying to outweigh the bad points of each type. It's easy to find the good points, but a lot harder to find the bad points.

It's one unit. When you change your transmission fluid you change the differential fluid at the same time. No need to take anything apart just take out the plugs and let the old fluid out then refill.

Is the oil for the differential like an additive you add to your transmission oil or do you just use the differential oil in place of your transmission oil?

Either way depends on which LSD you get some don't need additives.

As for all the clutch type L.S.D., it requires special transmission oil like Cusco, Motul or Redline. If improper tranny fluid is used, there will be clunking sound coming from the LSD and will wear down the clutch quicker than it should be.

how often do you have to change the special transmission fluid with aggressive street driving? About the same intervals as your engine oil? More/Less?

And how often do lsd's need to be repaired? About the same as when a clutch needs to be repaired?
