Hi lads, I just wondered if anybody else was having as much ballache as me trying to fit their supra diff into their cosworth, as its started to really annoy me now.

Just wanted to make it known this hasn’t anything to do with the kit I used which was MK’s kit that I brought a while ago, as what I can see it’s a great quality kit.

Ok first of started mocking up the bits and found this –



Then found the new stud hidden at the bottom of the box, DOH!

But the back black bracket still wouldn’t fit flush so I had to file off four of the rear fins as shown in this picture with the slight different colour.



Today on my only day off I attempted to fit in the rear hoop and found another bloody problem, after working out how the side brackets attach, well I think I have, is this right?



So I managed to get one side of the front of the diff fitted but when I tried to put the other side in, it was 5mm short, in the pic it isn’t very clear but the brass part should be inline with the black part at the top /



After for the third time taking it apart, I noticed it’s the hoop that stopping the diff move forward as shown in these pics with the rubbage on the freshly powder coated hop, grr and the diff casing…





So I left it like this as I was pretty fed up.



So what do people think?

Anybody else had this trouble?

Should I grind some off the casing or bend the hop to make it fit?

I take it it’s the diff as the beam had a normal 7.5in in before no problem.

Or what ive seen people fit them while the hoop is still on the car, would this make a difference cause you can drop the rear down?

Do they fit level once fitted?
