A quick diff question

separris · 11-13-2021, 08:18 AM

I am looking to swap my base diff complete pumkin with a vlsd complete pumkin. Will a 09 bolt up to a 13 ? Stub axles are included.

It will bolt up. On the stub axles. You have to watch out for the type of bolts used. Some will use bolts that screw into the stubs. Other will use a bolt and nut to hold the axle to the stubs.

Since you're planning on the swap. Now is a good time to replace the diff bushing in the sub-frame. Go poly or solid.

Is there any way to determine vlsd from pictures?
