|
|
Hey, guys, I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for a used/rebuilt diff for my 88 M5? Also, i am getting some idea that other differential assemblies 'might' swap in. I can't afford 2k for a rebuilt unit at the moment so I was leaning toward used. I heard there is a 4.10 ratio unit that might work? I believe I have roasted the LSD as well as the pinion beariing(s), but have not broken it down completely yet.
ANY help would be appreciated. BTW, i am in the MD - DC area.... ![Confused](images/smiles/icon_confused.gif) |

Why, does it make a nasty noise? Before you do anything, change the lube to RedLine 75W140 gear lube. _________________
