    Cool Whats the diff?

    Going for a shorter diff for the zed.
    So, can anyone tell me the difference between
    a 3.89 & 3.91 ratio. Apart from the obvious.
    I'm not afraid.

    Not sure what else you want to know?

    What's the difference between 3.73 and 3.91? One is slightly shorter..?

    Curious because of their very similar ratio.
    Is one considered stronger.
    Are the carriers different etc.

    I'll just put my anorak back on.
    I'm not afraid.

    Carriers are the same. Should also be the same strength, they've both be made out of the same material.

    The only difference would be the normal difference's, but with such a small change, i doubt you'd notice either (i barely noticed an increase in acceleration going from 3.08 - 3.45s)

    If Diff Technics are anything to go by, 3.89's are for a Ford diff, and 3.91s are for a Commodore diff. VZ's diffs should all be M80's.
