getting my diff reconditioned and I'm curious if I need to wear it in afterwards?? I need to go on a 12hr drive a few days after getting it done, is it safe to drive it a long distance straight after?
Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
VT s2 BW 80, 3.07:1 (auto) 3.46:1 (manual) LS1 and L67 models, V6 models continued with the BW 78
I just wanted someone to say "Yeah, all models from VTII onwards had bw80" or "No, the v6 models still have the bw78". Not bolding a sentence I've already read.VT series 2 onwards they fitted the BW80 diff, which has a larger crown wheel and pinion, and also different ratios. Parts from these are not interchangeable with the earlier BW78.
Probably best to climb under the car and double check the label on the side off the diff as Holden started to make a fair few changes in the later model cars.
No help whatsoever. If you know the answer why don't you just say it? The sentence you bolded is the very sentence that confused me as it directly contradicts the sentence a few lines above it:
Calm down mate, It was just easier for me to copy/paste rather than write again at the time. Not everbody is out to attack you, remember that next time before you have a whinge. If you think it's conflicting info, ask again if you didn't like my response. Apologies it wasn't to your standard.
If you're looking to replace with a complete housing, the entire M80 housing bolts in.
