If they don't want it, I'll have it JT. You won't get much in return, but I will send you a Christmas card. Honest advertising, you can't beat it ;)

Seriously though, iirc Wobbly had some issues with that particular company not long ago.

European tuning in Holland- bloody pricey!

quaife diff mega expensive (http://www.europeantuning.nl/shop/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage-ask.tpl&product_id=775&category_id=49&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=2)

or here, again costly

gripper diff bloody expensive too (http://www.corbymotorsport.com/volvo-850-gripper-limited-slip-differential-p-2765.html)

I'm sure Don @ Kalmar Union used to do them, might be worth giving him a buzz/ email.


I think you may as well get volvolised's ltd diff mate!

Well it's in a box ready to go... saving you £125 and you were contacting gearbox man... he's still going to charge to fit on top...back to quaiffe it goes..
