Can you describe to me what the rear diff head is? I have never heard that term before.

You mean the internals of the differential (gears) or the whole thing casing and all?

Earthworms rear diff bushings

the 15/15 mod (do a search)

maybe rear sway bushings?

some elbow grease and a rag to make things look nice under there.

and a stage 3.

ok i understand that i may use a different form of what you may call english but hey that goes two ways ok,over here any kiwi who has a car and can say do a oil change knows what the diffence is between what a diff is and what a diff head is, so enough of the snide comments! you dont hear me commenting on your english ie what the hell is a trunk? i thought that was what a elephant had not a car, we call it a boot. so just a simple question about what im asking would surfice without the neverending jokes and realise that there are more than just americans on this site and we others may call certain things differently..
ok enough bleating, anyway thanks to those that have answered a lot of my questions wether or not i have worded them correctly in american english or not but your replies have been very helpfull and i thank you wholeheartedly
cheers nigel
