2:73 rear end case , What will fit?
This question is for a friend who has a 2:73 diff, I have read numurous threads that say you need a different case for 3:42's or 3:73's, but then again I see in the parts for sale section, 2:73 diffs with 3:42 or 3:73's in them, what is the correct information, is it possible to stick 3:42's in a 2:73 case , and if so what is needed to accomplish this with no adverse problems.
thanx

So a 2:73 case would have to be sent to your shop for proper installation of gears, lets say 3:42's, then shipped back and installed, any idea on the cost of this -vs- just getting a 3:42 rearend shipped and then installed.

Ahhh! nevermind , just seen your website, great info, $1799 for a A4 with exchange, do you have a non core price, for example for people who do not want to remove there old diff until the new one arrives for install.Does your shop require the old diff to then be shipped back to you for a core charge credit.
Thanx for the info.
