Evo X rear differential

looking for advice. I have two effed up rear diffs. The one on the car has atf fluid coming out of the gear oil fill plug. The other ran out of fluid (mistakes were made...) and it locked the rear axles and a couple teeth broke but the housing is good still. So I'm either looking at rebuilding one the differentials and can't find service manuals anywhere let alone a diagram of the inner workings. I have also looked at the 1.5 way cusco lsd but not sure how that would handle in the winter since the car is my dd for another year or two. If anyone can give me their two cents or point me in a good direction it would be greatly appreciated.

This is my first post so if this is in the wrong sub forum my apologies.

Checked his page out but looks like they only deal with the mechanical diffs. Not the ayc diffs

He does them, send him an email or 37 until he responds.

Or call every 30 minutes during business hours, he might pick up eventually. In all seriousness, TRE is a great shop. Probably the best outfit I know as far as working mechanical gearsets. But, the company is Jon and one employee and moves at a pace that reflects this. I think Jon might read email once a day at best and if your message isn't straight forward, it'll get ignored. Just send a message with what you want done and asking for instructions on what you need to do to get them started on your job and you should get a response in a day or two.

Yes, just keep emailing him. He'll email you back or call you. But Jon is the guy you want to have dealing with your stuff. Just remember, he's hard to get ahold of cause he's to busy giving a **** about the things he works on

This. Like any small shop with minimal employees he wouldn't get anything done if he spent all day on the phone and responding to emails. I honestly just started shipping him stuff, with an email letting him know its on the way and what it needs...lol. I know about what stuff costs with him now, so I don't need to go through the formalities of getting a "quote".
