Torsen Advice - CEG Archives

I have been researching places to purchase a Torsen Limited Slip Differential. I found some prices from places like BAT and Ford Racing those prices were around 600. I found some information on the MTX 75 Component Spread Sheet saying that John Bleakley Ford (JohnBleakleyFord.com) sells at $495 and that McNews Automotive (McNewsAutomotive.com) sells at $525. I wanted to know if anyone has bought from these two places and could recommend them.

Thanks for the help.

Tousley is up north, not florida.

Tousley is in White Bear Creek, MN, FWIW.

I recently bought one and everybody told me they were on backorder with no date for their availability. I found one from an ebay store that had them cheap and in stock. Search ebay, because I think they might still be on backorder.

Thanks, I will check but last time i didnt come across much on ebay for my tranny.

I just ordered my Torsen today for 534+ shipping. It was the last one listed in the Ford dealership's database.

If anyone is still looking ford has posted that their estimated delivery date is April 6.

Best places to find them for under 550 are:
1-800-328-9552 ask for Steve 515+ shipping
JohnBleakleyFord.com
McNewsAutomotive.com
wakeperformance.com
(704) 938 3121 NC Ford Dealership ask for Sam 534+shipping

And this guy on Ebay still has them: Bryant Motorsports

Rodney! I hope you didnt get the last Torsen!

I hope it doesnt put my swap back a couple weeks

I called John Bleakley and the dude called the Motorsport place and it's back ordered till like the 6th. Anyone have one for sale?

Haha. All you guys from down south...

yes his name is Steve.

But the dealer is Tousley Ford in White Bear Lake, MN

He's a real great guy. I've done tons and tons of business with them and if I had to throw an estimate out there I think I've spent well over $2k in parts from them. I bought my Torsen for $495 but I just picked it up so no shipping.

If you need anything Ford OEM or Ford Motorsport Steve at Tousley is the guy to call.

I've been there many times actually. I found it it was Tousley Ford from MN when I first heard the name. I was like, "no way." Honest.

I grew up in Maplewood and my dad is from White Bear Lake.

...okay back on topic...

Get a TorSen because I said so...
