They might have received some difference in the hardening but NOTHING worth talking about.

Face it. The MTX-75 diff is a piece of sh!t, even if Il Papo blessed it himself.



that right there says it all...and if i ever know anyone thats buys a tour or coug the FIRST thing i will tell them is "hey man...when you wanna pull the tranny?"



thats what they told me...and my answer now is next week...to change the 3rd gear synchro parts...and shift forks, and swapping to a 95-97 diff...and then as soon as i can afford it, a torsen...

the only reason that i am not doing this now is that the 95-97 has better gears in it...i snapped a gear in half in my 98 differential...so take that for what you will.



Hey it's your money but why even BOTHER with putting in another stock diff? the 95-97 may have, may have, an increase in yield strength of 10-15%, but you're wasting time and money putting that in especially seeing as you are attaching it to a 3L!

Seriously, don't cheap out now.... do it right and put in a diff that is worth a damn.

Hell maybe you think it's fun pulling out trannies. I certainly don't think they are all that fun, and if a diff lets go an wipes out some gears then you're going regret it even more.

Seriously people why is eveyone so half-assed these days...?
