Title: 3.36 diff ratio,,,where do you find it? Post by: Gary C on October 21, 2009, 10:13:38 PM Just need a bit of help regarding the 3.36 diff, does anyone know what model to look for?. Iam currently working in a remote community that has a wide range of holden wrecks, most have no axles but a lot have diff centres. They are hard to get to so some indication on what models may have that ratio would be very helpfull, thanks Gary C

Post by: jasonr70002 on October 21, 2009, 10:52:54 PM HK to HZ had 3.36 ratios in them and they should have the ratio on the collar behind the yolk but take a wire brush as they might be hard to see.

I worked for GMH for some time years ago. The rule of thumb is early holdens 3.36 auto and 3.55 manual. Later holdens 2.78 auto and 3.08 manual. But remember these vehicles are so old now that they may have had diff changes by now. Regards Brett Title: Re: 3.36 diff ratio,,,where do you find it?

Post by: Gary C on November 10, 2009, 12:29:40 AM The hr in the first pic actually had the diff I was after and it looks pretty good, I just wonder if they get brittle or fatigued while basking in the Kimberley sun and the Fitzroy River flood for 30-40 years? Hate to drop it in my rebuilt diff and it shatters! Anyway thanks fellas I now know where to find em. Gary C
Title: Re: 3.36 diff ratio,,,where do you find it? Post by: mcl1959 on November 11, 2009, 09:11:01 PM I pretty sure the sun wont hurt them, but I would be a little concerned if the diff has been under water for a length of time. There is a vent hole at the top which is basically open to atmospere.
