transmission front diff dissaster
i have recently found out that my front diff is screamin for help. I had a transmission tech tell me it would be easier to just find a used tranny on ebay and use that but i want to know how hard it would be to rebuild my front diff. I want to take all new gears and bearings and replace them. How hard and how long would it take me to do this? I am vrey concerned because it is getting worse by the day. So if anyone has doen this it would be great if you could get back to me on this as soon as possible thanx for your input.

it is whinning loudly, most residing inside the car but it is very noticable outside, alsi teh backlash on the diff gears is pretty large, at least more than it should be

It may be a good time to think about changing the diff ratio, to a lower 4:1 or so. Have to swap the gears in the rear diff also. All the best. Harvey.

I think you would be better to fit the Legacy diff unit to the SVX box. To use the whole box would meen that the Legacy TCU would have to be fitted, with some wiring problems . There would be other problems with the AWD box not driving the back wheels. The front wheel spin could not be controlled, and that can lead to breaking the front diff again. The I think the diff section could be swaped as a unit, with out having to set up the gears. Harvey.

yea thats all i needed to know, i just want the differencial part of the transmission. Now i was told that the diff part was able to be removed along with the pinion shaft. i was going to swap the differential unit and the pinion shaft from the legacy tranny into the svx tranny, i jus wanted to know if it would work
