hi am i able to swap a ke30 borg center and pinion and put in a ke70 i blew a diff and don't have another i have read the faq but didnt really understand

thanks

No you won't be able to (at least not easily). KE30s use leaf springs where as KE70s use a 5-link setup with coil springs so all the mounts will be missing on your KE30 diff. Just have a hunt around for someone wrecking a KE70, shouldn't be too hard to sus one out.

You can put the carrier/crownwheel and pinion in the KE70 housing

yea thats what i meant

will the whole housing from a 70 fit on to a 30 diff, that would be nice.

I put a KE36 diff centre into my AE71, however when i tightened the pinion shaft, it loaded up the bearing and wouldn't spin. I think this was because the shim wasn't on it at the time, but just remember to compare the pinion shaft lengths when you do the swap. I ended up using the AE71 pinion until i found a full diff, but this mismatched combo howled like crazy.
