My rebuild cost £600 including fitting, needed new ring and pinion gear and the bloody thing STILL span up one wheel when rebuilt, couldnt get the garage to believe me as when I showed them in the wet it sat sideways nicely Go to a reputable place, I hear Bernie is a no shit box and diff builder, comes highly recommended on her

My rebuild cost around 1800€ (thats about £1250), including Quaife ATB, second hand diff, few new bearings, new seals and labour. As cheap as soap!

just get yourself a quaife ATB mate like i have on mine.........just fit and forget......pretty much bullet proof but comes at a price....about 7-800 quid i think mate but worth it when you consider how many standard diffs you'll get through.
