Diff = Cooked
Still haven't had it fixed, mate. I'm taking it to a shop tomorrow to find out exactly what's wrong with it, then I'll be going through jeturbo to source me the parts to have put in.

Sorry man, I'm confused. Were you saying to buy a reco'd diff with truetrac already installed? Is that what jeturbo would do for me? Or get truetrac put in after I get the new/replacement diff I'm a diff noob, I really have nfi about them apart from them burning my pockets

Warranty is long gone. From what I've read, trutrac is the way to go. But is that all I'd need to buy? Take it to a diff shop and get them to gut my diff and replace it with this? and off I go? https://www.harrop.com.au/shop/detroit-truetrac-m86-30-spline New gears as in replace the current 2.73 with new 2.73? cause I wanna keep the standard 2.73 as ive been told changing gears comes with a whole new range of issues

Kind of, they just said I'm best going with a brand new diff from ford, or I can go the lucky dip and get one from the wreckers. I just wanna be 100% sure it's the best option before I go out and spend over $4k on a diff + install lol.

Diff = Cooked
Hey guys, so my '13 xr6t ute diff is completely cooked. Had it looked at by the boys at nizpro and the LSD is basically non existent, metal shards have torn through the left seal and it's pissing oil all over the wheel. So basically, I need to replace it asap as it starts grinding and thumping within 15 minutes of driving. I'm not sure what to do though, do I get a new one from Ford for $3.6k (ford quote) including axels etc. Or is there something better to upgrade to? Or do I just go cheaper and get a diff shop to fit a reco'd one in? Do I bite the bullet and get a second hand one from the wreckers and hope I hit the jackpot? I don't really know much about diffs, so any suggestions are appreciated. Cost isn't really an issue as it's an expensive fix either way. What's the go with trutrac? Ute's stock btw Cheers
