i will be needing a good diff in the near future so i'd like to know what people think?

the lads down my way rate the quaife for strength...

cheers

 

i know someone who blew a gripper launching in a rwd stage 3 saph

 

Seriously Col?? that,s shocked me...

 

arent bara boxes a good bet?

 

Even with a gripper or quaife you still use the original crown wheel and pinion, so there is still a weak link if these arent in good condition to start with.

 

is the quaife kinder to the crown wheel tho as its progressive?

 

thats the part fraser smashed in it

 

so they didnt actually blow the diff then, just the cw and p

 

i managed to blow 2 gripper units in the escort.but these where the 7 inch ones,
the 7 1/2 was indestructable.

 

didnt someone break a quaife by drifting it and the oil not going round and all draining out!?

 

ATBs have a lifetime warranty. Apparently on the very rare occasions they've had them returned it's been because a component connected to the diff has bust and damaged part of the diff. Michael Quaife proudly informed me that they've never had one failure.
