well save this from becoming a pissing match. a combination of wheelbase, design, engineering, and the lsd contribute to the car having a shitty radius. the thread starter has a 05 so his car has a lsd boom his car completes all four of the check list and you cali have a 03 obviously your car misses on the lsd but still falls into the list. now when i originally posted it was directed at his oem specs not your pos 03 that they cut corners on. hidinginfl your are right but also remember it does this but not as effectively as say a planetary diff would or even a ball diff. so in turn the lsd would contribute but not be the soul reason for his complaint. please lets all go to school for this shit, have the extensive race and build backround that i have then well talk until then some of you need to think before you speak mainly rocketman and cali

Happy Flaming!

helical limited slips don't force the wheels to go the same speed, you're thinking of clutch type diffs...

Turning raduis sux b/c the huge tranny caused dodge to make up use a crappy rack. With a normal neon rack, are tires might hit the huge ass tranny.

LSD and all that crap have 100% ZERO to due with final turning ratio.

It's a clearance issue. My Stratus RT does the same thing only worse. The non-LSD will get a little more rotation out of one of the wheels and could help radius, but the rack is only gonna turn so far and were running 16"-17" tires on cars that were designed for 13"-14" tires.

Like I said probably a dumb question but I thought I would ask cause I've never heard of anything like it.
Now that the pissing match is over and proper info was posted, i'll answer your question.
Change the Steering rack and get smaller tires. Even then the tranny might be in your way.
