Recommendations in Wellington for Diff rebuild service?

Recommended Posts

Looking at getting a new diff for my e28 (with M54 swap) and the price to import a complete unit, remanufactured ($4k) or even well used ($2k) is too high. Want a taller diff with LSD.

So was looking at getting the following from DiffLab.co.au:

https://www.difflab.com.au/products/bmw-188mm-diff-rebuild-kit

https://www.difflab.com.au/products/bmw-188mm-210mm-differential-bolt-set

https://www.difflab.com.au/products/bmw-188mm-lsd-4-clutch-2-way-45-45

https://www.difflab.com.au/products/bmw-188mm-ring-pinion-293

And then getting someone to gut and build into my existing housing. Ive swapped a Ring and Pinion before with some help and didnt find it a fun experience. ( 😛 ) so would rather get someone competent to do it, ideally just hand them the car and get it swapped.

 

Any recommendations in the general Wellington area?

Shipping a whole diff would be a bit $$ when it's not really that specalist a task! I'd love to buy a complete unit in NZ tho!

I drove my donor diff to Auckland from Napier for Kayne to do my conversion. It's awesome and I've never looked back. You want a good diff, take to Kayne...

Shipping would have been way cheaper but it was a good drive 🙂
