4.3's from brunswick diesel $300 per diff + shipping which is the killer .

so 4.6 shouldnt be much more.

Worth a try.

How much did brunswick want? interested, comparing to th .3's.

They need 3.5/3.9's anything else is crap to them.

What models did the 4.6's and 4.88's come out in?

Also can you fit GQ centres to GU housings?

Someone told me GU are tougher? True?

Thanks

4.6 out of 2.8
4.8 is only aftermarket.

I dont have weekend tyres, and 33s suck alot of power out of a 2.8 so id like the gearing standard to get some low down power back because as ppl know they lack low down power even on standard tyres.

Now THAT'S interesting!!

Usually, the forces of 'evil' come out and poo poo the very THOUGHT of anything but GENUINE gears!(4.6's as 4.88's didn't come std) Similar to chinese air lockers!! (Even if the past/(current?) ones are crap, they WILL get better. The Chinese are capable of building good copies, and its only a matter of time before WE become smart enough to pick the good manufacturers from the not so good!!

With the diff gears, any place that does V8 swaps in GQ's, particularly V8 diesel swaps like LinQuip, Brunswick Diesels etc.
