DIY differential change? Tue, 08 June 2004 04:48 Go to next message
hi guys

my car has become a lemon and i was wondering if i could change diffs without having to get it towed to a workshop.

i'm going from drum to discs and have an apparent 'bolt-on' diff waiting for me.

i'm not really familiar with differentials, but i have a basic idea on what is what - but i'm just wondering what to remove first and is it possible to do at home/one man job?

what im really confused is how to remove the input shaft from the final gear, and how would i load in the diff oil.

any info appreciated!

RWD or FWD car?

There are some very good basic instructions in the 'tech docs' section for changing RWD diff.

Sorry its in 'articles', not tech docs.

I used these instructions for my first diff change and it went smoothly.
