I finally was able to get my hands on a relatively new ACD (Active Center Differential) pump, due to mine failing after being exposed to the elements of all four seasons within a 5 year period. When I mean exposed I mean directly exposed to the elements. Mitsubishi decided to mount this pump in the front left corner of the car which allowed water, salt, snow and road debris to attack it when moving. Therefore, after a while corrosion will work its way into the pump's internals and eventually cause it to fail by seizing the internal components. Heh, there's a nice pattern going with my car and that is parts like the seize... My solution is to relocate this pump into my trunk and plumb new AN SS lines from the pump to my transfer case and that will shift the weight to the rear of the vehicle and increase reliability ten fold; for the pump anyway.
In addition to my ACD pump, I also received my new Fortune Auto 500 Series Coilovers. I've also installed all my Whiteline bushings for my front lower control arms.
Some pictures to compliment my words.
