what would you use, how much and from where.
Would like to run car up the strip next year and dont want to leave the rear diff on the floor, if i can help it !
Car is runing over 400 bhp and i have nos which i might put on the car just for fun, dont realy need it but why not use it, its brand new and been sitting in my garage for over 9 months, all ready have uprated front diff and box so hope they will be ok, its just the rear diff ( i hope ) that i need to change or do i with this sort of power ? any help out there.

 

2wd should be fine m8 or a 2wd atb

 

Ive got a 2wd on me Esc Cos, but will be apeaking to DPE over the next few days at what upgrades there are for them as I want it reliable Can let ya know information as/when I get it??

 

cheers what do you have to do to get a 2wd diff to fit or is a bolt on or mod ?

 

maybe a bit overkill but a 9"er

 

you will need a 2wd rear beam/shafts and outer flanges

 

Kev... What sort of price are these?

 

2wd one just needs a 2wd beam m8

 

Price - wouldn't worry about that , they're about as common as hen's teeth with the correct ratio

Dunc, have a chat with the boys from ZOO??

 

@ BillaBong, will just uprate me 2wd then

 

Kev a bit over kill for me i say but your right its

 

u also need the pump etc afaik dont u kev as the 9incher is dry sumped?????

 

ssshhh - granada cossie diff - but don't tell everyone....

 

cheers bill will do, i just want to give the car a bit of death next year as i miss track days ect, i blame porkie i knew i shouldnt have gone round donny with him at national day it just reminded me of all the fun i was missing out of and forgot about

 

does dpe have a web site????

 

no gus it has the fittings to fit an oil cooler though, which i dont have yet, it just fills as normal you might be getting mixed up with my gearbox it is dry sumped

 

Not sure Benn, but phone Pete Doughty on 0115 926 2073

 

shh dont tell ppl what there shite

all a granny cozzy diff is a 7.5 slipper same as a 2wd but used the smaller shite 4x4 shafts and flanges

 

OK, thought it was bigger, must have just been a cheap source of 2wd diffs they were on about rather than a bigger diff than 2wd...
Does share 4x4 ratios, is bigger than standard escos and cheaper so can afford to replace more often

 

a ecoz diff is 7 inch
a 2wd diff is 7.5 inch
most grannys are 7.5 diffs with diffent ratios
granny cozzy only had the slipper diff
hope this helps
the only thing that breaks on the diff is planet and sun gears which you can buy in a kit so if you have 2 diffs get one fixed and then you have a spare

 

cheers brom

So what hp is the 2wd diff good for?

 

brom i dont understand?

you say they shit, but they're bigger than std Esccos ones?

im lookin at putting one in mine rather than the std 4x4 diff... as it saves all the agro of changin shafts n stuff

if this is a bad move, can ya tell me why?

 

Safe to 250bhp at the rear wheels (when they can't spin and a LOT more when they can - as in a 2wd car), so about 400bhp ish flywheel in a 4x4. Obviously a lot more if you don't go launching....

 

I reckon the planet gears are weaker in a 7.5" than a 7".
If you want reliability, fit an aftermarket slipper
You'll find all the options on my website at www.gearboxman.co.uk [/end of shameless plug]

 

like mike said the standard diff is no good with power behind it hence the person posting will need a uprated diff in there i wud like to sell him a zoo 10 inch diff set up but i recon thats over the top

jimbo you got nothing to worry about with you v6 power as there not got enuf power to pull the skin of a rice puddling let lown break planet and sun gears
