[turbogj260]

So u gonna go hilux rear end? Recommended buddy!

[ISKA8]

nah bro,the diff in the car with the 4.1.1 gears should be alright...i hope!

[turbogj260]

LOL if its a standard siggy borgy one you will be lucky to get 3 months out of it.
Scorp one, better but ive still managed to snap centers in them.

[C_Fernance]

The standard borg warner diff lasted about a month behind my VR4 conversion. Seemed to be holding up ok, then one night i was on my way home from work, gave it a bit of a squirt exiting a corner and it went bang. Completely destroyed the center. I can spin the axles or input flange by hand and nothing else turns at all.

This was with the standard 14" tyres (175's i think??) that are god knows how old. Something with a bit of grip would put a heap more load on it and kill it even quicker.

I'd enter a more appropriate response if I wasn't laughin' so freakin' hard! You can feel the love right there...

[ISKA8]

haha
man i guess its just me and my luck? my old siggy with a welded diff held up for about 2 yrs of caining...??
ill see what happens anyway.

[GLANT]

its all about how you treat them too...clutch kicks, burnouts (yum!) launches etc etc will load or kill alot of diffs!... i killed a 9 inch with a standard lpg 350 at easternats lol! obviously i treat them bad

[ISKA8]

i agree with you pete...

oh i forgot,ill thought id throw some pics of the sig as it stands atm..ive got time this weekend so what im gonna hopefully do is,give it a complete cut 'n' polish with a wet rub,slap the rear spoiler back on,put all the badges and door moulds back on and if i have time pull the diff out and try put the gears,weld the bastard and back in,if i have time...
anyway here are some pics....

[GLANT]

LOOKING BLOODY AWESOME!!!!! id just weld the diff, id forget the gears...easier. got to see it in the flesh real soon! in boxhill much??
