speedway_rolla Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 G'day, Its Possible but the KE30 came with the Banjo (japanesse) diff. Whereas the KE70s came with borg warner. I think the 30's gear ratio is 4.11 and the 70s is either a 4.11 or 3.9. With all he tinkering you'd have to be doing a simple visit to the wreckers with $40 in your hand for a KE70 diff would be easier.

Raven Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) My KE36 is running a Borg-warner and they were the most common diff's for KE30's and KE55's. The jap import models came with the Jap diff. Edited June 9, 2006 by Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomo Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 black dash ke30 had a banjo, silver dash had the borg warner ke30 through 55 had leaf springs, ke70 had trailing arms no the diffs complete will not interchange, and unless you have all the tools for setting backlash and shimming a borg warner the diff shop price ($400 usualy) makes a center swap a bloody expencive option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tham Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 With all he tinkering you'd have to be doing a simple visit to the wreckers with $40 in your hand for a KE70 diff would be easier. $40 for a differential, that's really cheap. The last I checked a few years back, a KE70 differential costs M$400 (A$150) at one of the local salvage yards here in Malaysia. Should have bought it back then, my differential is making lots of grinding noises, and that salvage yard doesn't stock it anymore. Neither do most others here.

Thats shit, didn't realise that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolla__Boy Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 If you have a full diff it will just bolt in fool!!! But you will need a different tail shaft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r3s Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 $40 for a differential, that's really cheap.

Neither do most others here. i've picked 2 up in brisbane, 1 for $60 the other $80, not too bad considering that with a hoist and air ratchet you can change a diff over in about 40 minutes :jealous: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
