vn diff will it fit

[scottVH]

hey guys
just want to know if a lsd rear axle from a vn ss would fit into my vh?

im hoping to up grade to lsd and disc brakes

The Diff is wider then a VB-VL diff.
You can use the brakes etc on certain diffs but need the axels shortene. I think its the Borg warners that you can interchange the brakes etc on.

thanks for that
i think i'll go with one from a vl then.

TheVL Turbo diff is the better one being 28 spline over 25 spline.
Not sure how the rear uni will go mating up, but its been done a heap of times.

VL V8 diff is also 28 spline and more common than the VL turbo diff. Plus people don't ask huge amounts for it just cause its from a "VL Turbo" uleh. And they're the same except for diff gears.

Good point, there was an advantage to using the Turbo diff, but I cant remember what it was now. Maybe they share the right uni?

Your thinking of the gears I would say.

VL Turbo diffs have 3.45 gears, VL V8 diffs only have 3.08

Cheers.

thanks guys
so the vl turbo is the way to go

You can use a VN diff (which will be 28 spline axles anyway) but the widest tyre you will be able to run before running into scrubbing issues is a 205. You can get a VL sedan diff and use the internals from the VN diff and shorten each axle as a cheaper alternative, or you can just bite the bullet and find a VLT diff, upto you. If you don't mind being restricted to 205 tyres, then a VN diff is the way to go.
