    ABY diff into a 3b?

    Was wondering if it was possible to fit a ABY rear diff onto a 3B? I've got a 3b and am having serious problems with the rear diff; namely, the plugs are solid and wont move! Seems to be move ABY diffs available that 3b ones

    cheers

    yes its fine.

    Other cheaper option is a 7a one, all you need do is swap the output flanges which ain't too hard.

      Yup, can interchange 3b and aby coupe rear diff, avant is different though.

      7a rear diff may be less stressed? Think the output flanges need swapped though.

          agree, 7a diff won't have had as much force thru it as a 3b/aby diff.
