NA6, 1993, 175K'S WITH A WORN OUT DIFF

Postby NA Mike » Tue Apr 09, 2024 5:03 pm

Hi All......Help!
My NA is with a Diff repairer. My first choice is for a replacement 1.6 Diff. He's removed the Diff and tells me that the Planetary Gears are stuffed too and he hasn't yet found replacement P gears out there.
Anyone got a workable 1.6 NA Diff with good Planetary gears? Would also appreciate any potential parts or Diff specialists that I can check-in with.
Cheers.
Mike

Diff specialist on here is flycasta (Duane/Dwayne), but he's in Lilydale Vic, although could potentially assist with sourcing parts or steering you to source parts. PM him:

Also responses to when you posted about this in 2022 might be worth reconsidering:

Mr. Speed Racer......Thanks for pointing me to Dwayne in Lilydale. I was about to PM him when help arrived with a couple of options too! I called my repairer and he didn't need to hear my options cause he found appropriate 1.8 gears and had the rebuilding in play. Looking forward to driving the Red Lady again.
