A few diff questions...

[MWP]

Ok, so how does this sound to you guys:

$200 for the hilux RN25 diff housing & axles.
$570 for torsen LSD + 4.1 gear set.
~$300 to have the mounts moved over from T series diff.
~$250 to have the center fitted in the diff with new bearings, etc.

Resonable?

Very cheap, you wont find anyone who can do it (properly) cheaper than that.

Bearings alone will cost you more than $250 without a trade, and you cant make the shims at home so that quote is a amazing. I wish i could find a place to do that price for my diff. Usually they want 400+ to move mounts.
Only possible way you could save an extra 5c is if you supply the diff housing and axles, ie buy it for less off ebay? any wrecker will want 200+.

mwp i'll have a look for some reciepts, if i can find it i can get you bearings for $16 each (cos the dumb bitch stuffed up)

get cds engineering to do your diff for you will be about $400 he was the cheapest in adelaide when i did mine

the rest seams about right, dont ask me how much it cost to do mine you'll cry

[joecoolmk2]

actually you can make your own shims with asome shim steel sheets and a pair of scissors

[MWP]

Shims for what?
The diff shop will fit the center, so they will take care of that?

[joecoolmk2]

yeah, i meant if you were doing it yourself, in reply to the comment that you can't make your own shims.

Gotcha.....

may i ask where you got the torsen diff from as i havent seen one. that diff i bought only had 4.1 with no lsd. got ripped off. have done my research and you cant buy 4.1 lsd type diffs for the g series. count the teeth and then you will know. $570 sounds cheap so make sure its torsen not just one of these 4 pinion things that the palm of. i spoke to an apsolute legend at toyota spare parts and he gave me heaps of help. hope this helps.

have done my research and you cant buy 4.1 lsd type diffs for the g series.

It doesn't matter, you can buy the LSD centre and the R&P set separately.
