differential question
 

I feel my svx is in need of another diff,I thinking about just buying a new gearset for 430.00 from subyparts and have a tranny shop do the work because its been exactly as year since this diff was installed.

Re: differential question
 

Front diff or rear diff?
What ratio?
Why do you think that you need one?

I have a fwd with a 3.70 gear ratio,what do you have available,I was told 4.44 wouldn't hold up or wasn't available when I was looking before.I won't be dragging the car anymore becuase I think the sticky dragstrips are my problem with failing diffs.

So I am assuming that the car is a 4EAT automatic.:o

1A) OK, FWD. I am sure that you can convert to a 4.44, or 4.11, and it should actually be easier on the car, the transmission, and the axles than the 3.70.
However harder on the tires.:rolleyes:

2A) This is a VERY astute observation on your part.

By the end of next week I will have had a chance to think, do a little research, and be better equipped to give good advice.
And if I run out of Rum, maybe tomorrow!:eek:
More later.:D

I would like a 4.44 if you could get one,also would this be just simply removing the old differential case or just the gearing and shaft.Also I have a manual shift knob on my shifter with a leather boot so any strange vibrations will be felt plus I think I heard a little chatter.I will be draining the differential fluid next week so if there should be some broken teeth in the bottom of the case.

Oh yes I have a 4eat
