What's A Good Price For A New Diff?

Hi, I'm looking at getting an LSD with 3.45 ratios for my 5.0L VT.

Just wondering what I could expect to pay, as I don't want to get ripped off.

Also, what do you think the chances would be of my insurance company pulling the diff apart if I stacked the car, because I'm not allowed to do ANY mods...

Cheers, Daniel.

OK, I'll try to cover both for you !

The diff. parts are available new, which is a better option.....just dearer.

As for the insurance....ask them! If its a factory option for your vehicle, they shouldnt have a problem. Just keep in mind that they are not completly stupid these days too! They DO know that a 5.7L & 6 spd were NOT an option in a Exec. or Calais.!!!

Good Luck !!!

If you have a V8 the LSD diff is standard on the VT's. So it should be in your insurance already.... :D

Yeah nar thats true mate, but the aussie V8 in the VT's came with LSD standard. Just looking at the booklet, all the SS came standard alone with the exec with V8 option etc. So I am pretty sure it does mate, but I am not 100%... Cheers
