   you buy the diff unless you find someone who has one second hand or just built, dont know how much a fitting charge would be but a decent dif is about £600

   I paid £485 + VAT - got it from rallydesign
   
   I've got to get quaife to swap my crownwheels over - if you give them the gearbox they can do all of it if you want.

   I havnt spoken to quaife about fitting it yet. I can imagine around £50 to swap crownwheels over, but some people have had it done for free - I'll see what I can do!
   
   Can imagine it's a lot more if you want them to fit it to your gearbox.

    The process of removing my crownwheel from my diff, and doing the machining so it can fit the quaife. It needs two ball bearings machines into it to stop the crownwheel spinning on the diff
    
    Could get a local firm to do it but I'd rather get quaife to do it so it's right. I dnt want to have to open the gearbox again too soon
    
    isn't too bad to remove and refit the diff though.
