Hey all.
I have a LSD cradle from a BA XR6 that I want to put in the XT. I don't want to fork out $1500 to get it done at a diff specialist. Anyone taken their diff out and put back in? How much work would I be looking at. Cheers

jack up and put on stands, unbolt drive shafts, tail shaft, abs sensors, anything else in the way then cradle. refit in reverse.

Cheers. Time frame for all this to occur? I have all the tools etc. Also, I'll be getting a set of 3.7's for the diff also, and a bearing kit with new oil throughout.

are you changing the whole diff assy or opening the diff and changing the carrier?
if you're changing ratios then i would recommend having it proffessionally set up. |

it's the pumpkin looking thing. but all the places i've checked have quoted $1600 to fit a shimmed 3.9 or 4.11 gears from an older diff; that I supply, complete bearing kit, and installed into vehicle. If they supply the gears its $2000 ish. Don't want to fork out that much just a better diff ratio and lsd lol

if you're just fitting the xr6 centre assy oil+all then it's just an unbolt and replace.
should easily be able to casually do it in 1 day |

Sweet. I'll get gears, and take the centre to a diff joint and get them to pop them in. and then fit it up myself
 cheers for help mate.
