Osgiken lsd instal

Hello guys,
I'm about to install lsd in my 05 r53. Does anyone know what is the exact preload of the bearings as well where can I get the bearing spacers. I looked around and there is no manual for our getrag transmission. I did find some diy on Ford Focus svt forum since they share same transmission but no luck on spacers. Please chime in. Thanks

If you still need bearings for the lsd you can purchase either of the following.

When I did the torsen 70k ago I just slapped it in and went. Reused the races and the stock spacing. Lots of hard miles later it is fine...
