Re: Differential swap $$$ (mstolars)
Could someone possibly make a how-to remove the diff and swap the gears? I would like to do it myself, but I would like some sort of guide on how to do it. Thanks :D

Re: Differential swap $$$ (STL94LT1)
Well, I have some mechanical ability, but I wouldn't trust myself setting backlash and that stuff. Otherwise, I should be able to pull the diff, if I had some sort of guide on what I have to remove. Once I get the diff out, I know a guy that can do the actual gear swap for about $100 and all he does all day long is transmissions and drivelines, so I think I can trust him to set the gear right.

To drop the diff I used the Field Service Manual and the Haynes $12.95 special together as references. The FSM has everything by the book (like using an expensive spring compressor) the Haynes manual shows all the old fashion short cuts (like using a jack to release the spring). This is a good time to upgrade the rear bushings to poly :)
