Diff Modification.

Is it possible/feasible to convert a diff with bolt on type shafts to use push in shafts?

I was hoping it might be as simple as removing the flanged output stub (shown in picture) to allow push in shafts to be used.

Cheers,

Chris.

just remove the back cover of the diff then remove the clips holding them in.

Assuming that it is not an LSD....

The LSD uses a longer splined left hand output shaft.

and you've got the right sizes push-in shafts

Thanks for the quick responses.

Both diff's are non-lsd so it's looking promising.

However, when you say about different size shafts do you mean diameter (i,e. spline etc) or length (or both).

Cheers,

Chris.

I love the way it all sounds so easy
remove cover reasonable if the bolts come undone
take off circlips hmmmmm sounds really easy lol good luck
rest is easy though

Wack each bolt head twice with a 2lb hammer before trying to undo. Works like a charm.
