7.5" Gripper diff - SOLD
SOLD!
7.5" Gripper diff for sale as I simply just don't like it!
Bought new from Barra earlier this year and built up by G.E.A.R.S into a Cosworth casing. Only covered less than 1000 miles in that time, with ten minutes of track use.
This diff' puts the power down superbly and has no whines, but I was pretty surprised at how clonky it was. So much so that I even sent it back to G.E.A.R.S for a full check over. They found no issues with the bearings & casing, and then they sent it on to Gripper for a full test. Gripper then confirmed it was all good.... Seemingly they're just meant to be that clonky!
Quote from the email:
"We have had the diff inspected from Gripper and there is no fault with the unit, it has all the latest plates internally and it has tested 100% fine."
It is currently being built back up with new seals, and will be available later in the week.
(Gripper diffs also come with a lifetime guarantee).
£1100
Also I would consider a px on a good tight recently rebuilt OE LSD or 7.5" open diff.
Pictured before fitting to my car (diff mount not included)
