Default RPM Level IV T56, RPM Level 2 Differential, and DTE Trans/Diff Brace

I am taking my car apart this week to sell or trade my RPM trans and RPM differential for stock T56 and stock diff + cash.

Both, the trans and the rearend have extremely low miles (~4500) with no track passes. I bought the car from an older man who put a lot of mods on the car, but then pretty much just cruised around in it due to them having a much faster drag car.

I want to set the car up for more track/autoX style driving, so the built trans and diff are overkill for my application.

The trans has mn6 gearing and the differential has 4.10s. They did the differential first and decided that the 4.10s were more gear than they liked, so they sent the trans in to be built as well with the longer MN6 gearing. The result is actually a very good combination for a street car now.

Both operate flawlessly, no sounds, grinds, gear popout, etc at all. If I trade, I would expect the same out of the units that I trade for. The differential is leaking between the trans and differential, so I will purchase a seal to send along with it to repair that while the differential is out of the car.

Let me know if you are interested in the two together or seperately.

The trans will be SOLD plus shipping (saving $400 from RPM plus the core charge)

The differential will be $Sold plus shipping (saving $400 plus core charge). RPM confirmed that they remember putting this differential in the car, but could not remember what stage it is. Originally they had built the diff for someone else, and they backed out, so they didnt make up a new receipt when the previous owners bought it to put in this car. I will be selling it as a stage 2 diff. If it happens to be a stage 3 or 4, then whoever the buyer is will just be getting a great deal.
Trans Brace=Sold plus shipping

If you want to trade your stock differential or trans, the trade price will vary depending on mileage etc. Ideally I'd like to get a 3 rib diff in trade, but a 1 rib is fine too. This RPM differential is a 1 rib.

I will update with pics soon

Bump for the day. I got the trans and rear dropped out of the car tonight. Still need to seperate. Alsp, I don't see an RPM badge on the differential and I looked through the receipts for the car and couldn't find where they did the diff. The trans, I do have a receipt for and they have an RPM badge on the casting, so I know it's right. I am going to call tomorrow and confirm whether the differential is built or not, and I will update.

The trans is still for sale along with the brace.

The trans is a level 4 T56 for sure. The differential is the one that I'm not sure of. PM me on what you would need for your transmission on a trade. Also, is your T56 a MN6 or MN12? You can also text me at 2054050667 for faster response.

Trans and differential are still for sale. Brace is sold.

The differential is confirmed to be an RPM differential by Rodney at RPM. He remembers putting the diff in the car, but does not remember the specifics on what is in the diff. For that reason, I will be selling it as a stage 2 (their lowest build level) and then if it's a stage 3 or 4, the buyer will just be getting a good deal.

Also saw that the diff is a 1 rib, not a 3 rib. I would still like to trade for a 3 rib to put back in the car since the 02 came with a 3 rib. However, I will not be opposed to another 1 rib.

Trans and diff are still for sale. Buyer needed a stronger setup for what he was going to do, so they are back up for sale.

Still for sale. Someone needs a solid transmission for huge discount. Don't let shipping scare you. I can ship this for under $100 to most of the US.
