I took the lazy route and asked the guys at MNR to source me a complete rear end for my MK - they found one pretty quickly and reburbished the diff, CV joints and hubs for a lot less than it would have cost me to get the bits seperately myself. I think the total bill was £550 which included new discs, calipers, pads, etc.

Aye, good luck...
I've bought one twice this year, and i still hav'nt got one through greed....
First one i bought off ebay, won it fair and square, guy decided i didnt pay enough for it.... relisted
Second one was a lovely person off this very forum who decided to put it on ebay 'cause he could get more dosh for it..
T**ts

How much are they going for nowadays? Ive got a spare one "Just kicking around" in my garage, as its nice to know ive got one spare just in case anything happens to the one im using

Why not use a scooby one? The rear diff on the auto imprezza ie 3.38 to 1, about £200 on the bay with shafts. You wont make that go bang in a hurry.

There is also the Freelander diff. 3.1:1? and you can also get a diff off a BMW that is 3.38:1

Not easy to attach to the rear sierra hubs though using Scott or freelander diff....

They are worth around 200-300 at moment

freelander diff is 3.21 i think not 3.1.then you need custon drive shafts.
theres a 3.38 sierra diff on pistonheads at £195 i think.
