Hi,
I've got a KM20 Liteace and I'm looking for another diff, will only an E series centre fit in? or is there another one with the same bolt spacing, axle splines and input shaft?

regards,
James

If you like, I have a 4.75 e series centre I'd sell for a reasonable figure.

In fact, I have the whole diff from an ms40 I'd anyone is interested.

I've already gone from a ~5.2 down to a 4.3, I'm thinking I want to go even lower to get better freeway economy, thanks for the offer though.
Just trying to work out what vehicle I can get one from. what's the lowest E series diff which is commonly available?
also do any cars use E series? or just commercial vehicles?

OR, is there a 5 speed column shift gearbox which will go onto a 4k?

or anything else I haven't thought of?

so many questions!

cheers!

Think you'd find that a MX32 E series would be a 3.9

[phreak97]

I'll look into that, cheers!

OK, So I don't see it listed in first post, but is XT131 a T Series rear end?
And if so what type, is it Zenki or Kouki?
Are there cheap / easy disc conversion available?

Help me out with some info Plz.

I cant confirm.. but the XT131's were Australian built which usually means it'll come with some garbage borg warner diff.

[Futo_gt86]

So no LSD or spool available?

TBH, no idea.

I personally think you're wasting your time and money with anything that isn't a banjo type diff.

Its generally quite expensive to have somebody transfer the mounts diff to diff (Usually $500+ for anybody has the proper equipement to check the straightness of the diff after all the welding).

So if you want a disc brake diff as strong as a T-series you're better off buying a JDM AE86 diff. Which will set you back $1000-1500 usually. Its only economically viable to do something else if you need a stronger diff.
