LsBeema 464 Report post Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) Hi Brrus. Here are a few options for my rear end of the Ls into e39 conv: Import a e39 M5 diff from ebay or South Africa and source out sideshafts...but the risk is there.. Or Buy a 210 mm diff and fit a 4.1 ratio and a lsd center...sideshafts too.. Or Lsd my one which would eventually break.. Any advice...

LsBeema 464 Report post Posted October 4, 2018 Ok...cool brru. Let me do some research. We have a 3.27 Holden diff. I thought about getting another subframe and modifying to fit with custom sideshafts...but then again...$$$$$ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
