Big or small diff?

What ratio?

Original or rebuilt?

Standard JB LSD diff so whatever that is. I thought these things were sought after ? nobody wants it ?

I want it, but I don't have the money and you are quite far away :D
Sorry for the useless bump.

I would say the big diff from a JD or widebody would be more sought after and attract the price you are after. I paid NZ$550 (AU$450ish) for my 'small' 3.909 Starion diff, and if anything they are harder to find here in NZ!

i'll let one of my customers know about it darryl

how much does a diff weigh?

Posted: **Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:59 pm**

A lot. About 40 kg from memory

Posted: **Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:18 pm**

The large diff is just over 30kg. The torque tube is extra, about 6kg.

Darryl, the guy who bought the mint gold starion would certainly want this unit. I would suggest to give him 1st dibs!!

Sometimes these things take a while to sell!!

Hey Mal, no i already asked him, he is not even slightly interested in modifying it which I respect as it is in amazing mint condition. Dirtygalant prices for starions parts seem to be different here then there. I paid $900 for the one in my JA and that is seems to be the going price for an LSD here regardless of size.

I wouldn't particularly call it a modification as LSD units were standard just about everywhere else except Australia....
I think it was done this way to keep costs down on the original price and a shortage of the small LSD's at the start of manufacture.

If I were him, I would just replace the LSD centre with the current/original diff in car. Still original.
To a Starion owner, I reckon this would be high on the list of importance

Absolutely - I think an LSD was one of my first modifications.

I agree completely gentlemen it would be my first change. Certainly wouldnt detract from its originality either would it. Looks like its sold to Dave from Newcastle anyway.
