Default Need place to reco my diff in Vic

hey guys,

I need to get my new (read stuffed second hand) diff rebuilt with new LSD and seals done.

Can anyone recomend a place?

My last diff was built by G&J diffs in Keysborough, I'm happy with them. I thought I would ask around first.

Cheers

I got mine done down here in Geelong at PBR. They were excellent with their service, and as far as i know have done a great job on my diff (hasn't buggered up since i got it )

It might be a big far out of your way though *shrugs*

I think I paid ~$700 to get my LSD rebuilt in the LTD, it was totalled.

I had mine done by keysorough diffs. From what i've heard they have an incredibly good reputation, definately worth a look...

dont go to geelong diffs i suplied second hand gears to them and now the diff is noisy as and they are telling me there is a bent tooth.
i asked arent u supposed to check them they said we did but we didnt see it.
they wont even give me a good price for new ones and they stuffed the other ones.
i will never go back to geelong diffs in duro st.
then i told a few people about it and they said aww yeah that guy is a f$%kin idiot 2 of my dads mates had problems with him years ago not putting the right stuff into there diff and blowing them up in like 1000k.
just my 2 cents.
cheers josh.
