   Will any standard diff fit into my XSi/AX GT gearbox?
   
   As i believe i blew mine and a few friends have said they have standard ones from various gearbox's lieing around!
   
   Really need my other gearbox back, as the current one really lets the car down.

   yes it will but you will need to swap the crown wheel over and they are shrunk on so you will need the tools to do that, it is also burried in the MA box so you will have to strip it right down to do it

   That shouldn't be a problem as my mate is friendly with a gearbox rebuilder and hes done work for me before!
   
   I think my mate mentioned having a spare diff with a crownwheel on it out of the box!
   
   Thanks for the reply!
