i cant seem to find many shops with a reputation on doing good gear work. i got quoted 475 in a shop in austin. it will take about 5 hours is this a good price? or can i find something cheaper?

 

thats about avg... thats about the price and time TechnoSquare quoted me for FD plus Quaife install...

 

stop telling people bout tsquuare. It'll hurt our turnaround time! Jk

 

They are about 15 minutes from one of the offices I work out of... you might get yours there first, but I'll be driving mine first - did you gety your Quaife directly from AutoTech?... I went through UltraRev who orders from AutoTech but got a way better deal from UltraRev than AutoTech was charging...

 

yea I paid msrp thru autotech but didn't pay shipping or tax. I was aware that I could of saved $100 but the gave me a courtesy call when the came in and I didn't mind giving them the business. So R u getting the Atb for mt or at?

 

saved more than $100 - on a google search I found a 5% off coupon code - the cheaper price + 5% off + no tax ended up being $1385 (includes shipping)... AutoTech has excellent cust service - and since Ultrarev sources from them I guess they are getting my business is the long run too...

I ordered MT.... spoke to TS, and AutoTech and they seem to think it will be fine with the 3.692 in my open diff... we'll see.

 

ok guys, car is going to the shop monday. i got the stuff needed to install, i am just wondering which in your opinion is the best oil to go into the diff? is it better to go with the oem (gl5) or something different?

 

I'm using Ams 75-90... I've heard good things about Silkolene (Quaife recommends) but it's not as easy to find as AmsOil... I'll probably drain and refill after a few thousand miles (just because) - will use Silkolene then.

In any event – synthetic is preferred

If they're going to rack the car, pull the diff, swap everything, reinstall, etc.. then the price is close. If you're going to pull the diff and they're just going to set it up for you, then it's a little high.

The 4x4 shops out here have quoted much cheaper prices, but that's also with me just handing them the diff assembly already out of the car. I haven't asked what it'd be with them pulling the diff, but 5 hours seems close.

FWIW, I like redline gear oil.

 

You can get the Silkolene here.
