DTE 4.10 Diff Swap
I took on my first attempt at a diff swap after lots of research for info on the CF and any where else on the web that I could source out the info.
I originally wanted to go to a 3.90 from my current 3.42/MN6 99 FRC but ended up buying a low mileage built DTE 4.10 from ED (Patches), a well know member who was gearing down for his SC installed moving down to a 3.42
My car is a weekend toy and and wanted to get more use out of my 6th gear and wanted to get a more solid diff that could hold my 440 RWHP and 430 TQ with out issues. I also added a ECS brace for some added support being it was a 3 rib case and added some hi-flow cats to eliminate the the gas stink and to tone it down just a little.
Had it out today for a couple of rips and could not be happier with the final results. SOTP ++++++
Shout out to Ed for getting the diff shipped up to me here in Canada, he had to jump through a few hoops to make it happen.
I thought i would share a few picks, I took my time and did it over 2 consecutive weekends and did a lot of cleaning of parts before re installing then on the car.
