"hey danvillan whats the difference between those gearboxs"</div>

Nothing same gearbox. As for factory LSD gearbox,they are extremely rare dont bother looking for one.

so i would be better to get mine fixed yea? im not sure how much a bearing kit costs but the mech said laybour wouldnt be much?

i can do the gearbox, its simple ****, if your "family mechanic" doesnt want to do it thats is bull****, its so simple, you will lose your car for 2-3 days! I did mine, if its noisey when the car is moving its just the input shaft bearing not the hardest thing to do, bearing will set up back like $20

"would you help me out RTK what would be involved

Remove the gearbox, pull all the gears out to get to the input shaft bearing, press it off, press the new one on, put all the gears back in, reseal gearbox and bobs your uncle :) I will have to look into pics I have when I pulled it apart, and the bearing you need, ex Japan is 6weeks, but a local bearing shop keep them in stock :) I am happy of your family mechanic pulls it out and puts it back it, and I just come to his work shop and do the bearing

It is easy to pull of the gear box out and put it back together. I just did it for the first time last month. Just buy any k 11 box and just replace the broken one. I have no idear to rebuild gear boxes so just bought a replacement and replaced it.

Why go through that hassle when you might buy a bugger box? I see it as a learning curve to pull **** apart, see how it works and then put it back together again

I bought the box off a member on this site and it was fine. Yes I agree with the learning curve but it takes a lot of time if you never done it befor.

Do you have the correct tools at home? Air comp, rattle gun, etc? Cause I could at yours if you have the tools? And if you want to help, you can it's a pretty simple job
