Title: FE Diff Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on March 02, 2004, 08:21:06 AM Can anyone tell me if there are any advantages/disadvantages to the original FE diff?
Apart from a kg or two of dirt and clay (good preserver of bolts and nuts actually) it seems to be in good nick. The 14" rims I want to use only need a 10mm off-set to fit perfectly. I had planned to fit a Torana diff, but being 30mm shorter each side it will stuff up the measurements and the tyres will rub.

If you are going to be running a grey motor the FE diff would be O.K.The Pinion Flange is probably the weakest point so i would suggest fitting a EJ Flange as they are reinforced. If you are going red motor i would go for a fine spline Torana diff. ;) Hope this helps, Regards ACE 8) Title: Re: FE Diff Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on March 02, 2004, 09:38:40 PM I have a pretty warm 202 going in, there is also an LSD centre to go in though.
I guess you are going to tell me I need different axles or something ;D Title: Re: FE Diff Post by: nicko on March 03, 2004, 02:51:57 AM depends on your LSD is it the coarse spline centre or the fine spline diff centre as holden had both.
Title: Re: FE Diff Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on March 03, 2004, 10:23:55 AM I'll need to email Alan Wall about the LSD (unless you are reading this Alan?).
Once I have worked out the LSD spline type- What spline are the FE axles? If the LSD differs, what axle options do I have? |
