Diff Shop

[takai]

Alright, seeing as i am finally getting around to putting my 4.7 into the race car i need a diff shop.
Who do people use around Adelaide, preferably central or north east.

[Frak]

Precision diffs on Port road have a very good reputation

[Andy San]

whatever you do don't use diff trans in town, they managed to setup my brand new trd gearset wrong so it is now all chewed out after 1 supersprint. I've been using dino's diffs in bowden and he is a good bloke. I think boss are pretty good with the toyota stuff.

Second for Precision on port road, was very happy with their sevice.

[Slimer86]

Andy, is that a part of C&D engineering in bowden?

[Andy San]

Not sure, he's in a little complex but a think he was independant

[FAST EDDIE]

Have you got more info on those two? Yellowpages returns nada for both Precision Diffs and Dinos Diffs...

[Fusion]

This one of them?

Precision Differential (http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/Precision-Differential-Gearbox-Centre)

[takai]

Yeah, i found Precision, not listed in the Yellowpages and are on holidays until the 11th.
BOSS have done a pretty good quote, will wait for Precision though as i dont have my act together yet.

[Frak]

Do it yourself, not hard. I have an adjustable tool for turning the bearing collars if you want to borrow.

[takai]

Yeah, i can make the tool for turning the bearing collars, thats not hard. Ill probably give it a go myself too.

The harder one is for Gav who needs an entire F-series built from parts. And i dont have a bearing preload tensioner.

[takai]

Anyone have a source for gear mesh paste? My old tube has dried out, and CBC/Coventries/Repco havnt had any.

[Katatonic]

What's the rough cost you Guys are getting?

[takai]

About $250 to setup a diff, through to $500 if it needs custom shims etc

[Katatonic]

Thanks. I better start saving.
