Our stock SVX rear diff is unique to itself, so if its toast you need another SVX rear diff to replace it?? Are there repair parts for sale if you wanted to go that route? Sorry if this has been covered already I may just have a problem in this area and am wondering what the options are, thanks..............G

Re: Please confirm
yes our rear diff. is 3.545 gear ratio with a visicious LSD in it. you would need one out of an SVX. or you could do the 4.11 or 4.44 swap in it, meaning changing the front and rear diffs. to that ratio.
do you know what is wrong with your rear diff.? |

Re: Please confirm
Not at the present, all I know is there is alot of noise coming from the rear ofthe car. I have read about wheel bearing trouble alot, is there a good way to tell what is making all the racket. Yesterday after a drive the rear diff was warm and the wheel hubs were not??? Thanks for the reply....G

Re: Please confirm
The rear diff should be a little warm to the touch due to the shearing of the fluid which creates some heat. I would get the car off the wheels and get all 4 rolling at 20 or so, then you can usually hear the noise of the bearing if you put your head near the wheel(s)

Re: Please confirm
chances are, unless you have no gear lube in the rear diff, your diff is fine. havent heard of one going out before.

Re: Please confirm
Thanks again guys, have checked gear oil and was/is fine I am hoping its not the diff, it would be a 1st in my 35yrs of car ownership, do SVX wheel bearing start growling at low speeds and get somewhat quieter at hyway speeds? I appreciate any and all info on this topic and hopefully it can help someone else also........G
