Thanks darren mate !!!! I hope you can help me out again As you know its tax time again !!!!!! Bank account is going to be full again!!!!!!!!

Now i want to upgrade my Diff currently 3.08 ratio open wheeler ..... Rang around today and some prices for ratios for the 10 bolt were very surprising i can purchase 4.44 for $400 ....and cannot fit minispool to open wheel centre in 10 bolt will fit into 10 bolt lsd carrier... Cant get 3.9's or 4.11's should i just remove the 10 bolt and go borgwarner?????


Will VN'VP diff fit under the vb ????? Not too worried about cruising and revs on the car as it is going to be club rego'd ,so will only be driven to and from meets and shows.... Any advice would be great !!!!!!!!

Vp diffs are 50mm wider than vb so it will scrub.

Cant believe its nearly been 2 mths since i was last on ... We had the cairns auto spectacular on here a few weeks ago .. Was a great weekend for car fanatics lots of nice cars about !!! I ran the Gauntlet and took the old girl there but what a mission took the car to the servo in the morning and put $30 in the car went home then the trouble started car ran like a piece of ****!!!!! Disconnected fuel line pumped into a bottle and the F#$K#N thing was full of water !!!!!!!!

Drained the tank and filled full of premium and tuned it up adjusted fuel bowls .... What a difference car hammers now!!!!!!

I dont drive the old commy round to much anymore though just sits in garage covered up ... Have to get the car on club Rego paying full rego on something i dont drive much is a killer ...... But i will never sell it!!!!!!!!! Even though the missus would love me too!!!!

But she is happy for now i bought her a 2006 Toyota hiace commuter last week and i get my old truck back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
