Default Re: Swap a SRT diff into a NA car - Plus LSD

Just a thought: It may be easier and faster to swap the entire rear end of a junked SRT into your NA. Drop the entire unit, the sub frame (carrier frame) and all the suspension with the hubs attached from the junked SRT onto your NA. The only thing then that would need adaption is the yoke/flex joint to your driveshaft. You would need to move the fuel pump and filter out of the way and deal with the parking brake cable, but only four bolts hold the carrier to the body, and the sway bar is easy to deal with.
That does seem like it would be easier, but I don't have a complete unit to swap in. I've found an SRT Diff from a guy that wants my lower gears for his SRT, so we're planning a swap. I've had to lower my rear assy to swap in the SRT Springs and sway bar already so I'm pretty familiar with that process.

Thanks for all of the info and advice, it looks like the Wavetrac LSD unit is a superior component compared to the other units.
