There is a guy on Ebay who is advertising a sierra diff reconditioning service for £385... Does anyone have any experience with this service?

thanks

Not yet looking at getting him to build me a 3.38 lsd over the winter.Ive spoke to on the phone says he can have your diff picked up from your house and have a quick turn around.

£385 for a recon diff ?!?
These diffs are cheaper to buy than that even yhe rare ones are still around £250
They are also very robust so personally I would just buy another not pay that amount for a few bearings

I tried to find a new one for years, without any luck
Have spent more than £385 in diffs before I found a good one, there is some real sh*te out there.

Road & Race did mine for £250. I paid another £50 to have it painted, but that was a waste of money. Looks like they gave it a light spray of silver without cleaning or prepping the surface. The paint is falling off. Contrast to the first diff I tidied up, where I used Hammerite special metals primer and silver Hammerite, the paint is still very good.
