Default Diff. install in Cincinnati/Northern KY.

Anyone know of a good shop to do a differential change in the Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky area? My dealer will do it for $350, sounds fair and I trust the tech but always like a second opinion.

Gary,

I am about to do the same thing and have gotten quotes ranging from $400-$1000. Performance Technologies in Fairfield Ohio will do it for $400. What Chevy dealer will do the swap for you? I am going to call Jake Sweeney Chevrolet in Springdale tomorrow for a quote. Unlike some Forum members, I have had good luck with dealer work. Let me know what dealer quoted $350 for the swap. :cheers:

McCluskey has 2 Corvette Techs now. They are doing a lot of aftermarket mods as well. They can set up your car for Autocross or Drags.

Like tom said Danny pop at McCluskey is the best tech I have found to deal with, Plus he is a racer. I live in the Dayton area and anything I can't handle myself I take to him.
Good luck, Dale

It may be the nastiest looking dealer shop in the midwest and the raped me for a new key on my 93 when I was in a bad situation , but maybe I'll give them a shot again in the future if I need work while I'm in Cincy.

It's on Reading road Just north of Cross County Highway in Reading. If you go there let me know what you think.
