Diff rebuild
« on: 11 September 2007, 21:15:52 »

Hi all i am goin to rebuild my diff and was wondering if any one could tell me if the bearings and oil seals are the same on all diffs as i am combining a non lsd and a lsd.
Also (i know im being cheeky)would anyone have part numbers for them as my local dealers are useless.

thanks in advance to those who respond.

I think MDTM and Matchless are our diff experts, you may have to wait until they come along.

Would it not be better just to replace the diff with one from the breakers? :-/

getting a diff from a breakers has no guarantee it will work any better, rebuilding one does!  :y
