If You Have A Quaife Please Read!!!!!!!

Well after my living hell for the last 3 months or so I think we have figured out what happened (still not 100% sure). Roadrace has called me a couple of times because of all the BS I was having. You have to install the shafts into the CVs first and then into the tranny or TC depending on the side. I bought mine in 2004/2005 and was one of the first batchs of Quaifes and thats how they want them installed. Right now there re no leaks at all and everything has been running ok for about 200 miles. Which if you read my whole story earlier you would know thats pretty good but I'm still not confident in anything yet. If you own a Quaife please call Roadrace before you reinstall or take your TC out. Just make sure you know for sure.

No, quaife makes an aftermarket front limited slip differential.. Some '03 and '04 owners upgrade their open diff.

I've thought of that too, but since the installation involved the transmission and the transfer case I thought he meant the center diff
