Jake,

Have you got the 60 diffs in yet? Can you let us know how you go with it.

I wanna spoa my middy but reckon it needs a wider track. 60 or 80's diffs were what i was thinking.

Any advice?

Cheers,
Ben

yeah mate i got a pair of 60 series diffs picked em up for $100 armsup

ben this is a long term project so the diffs unfortunately wont be goin in till next year some time.... trust me ben i will let every one on this forum know what is happenen with the middy as soon as i get started Very Happy

with spoa the problem is that you will deffinately have to go wider but i dont recon 80 series diffs are the go as they might be to wide... is this gonna be done to your daily driver? 60 series diffs are the go as they are 3.5 inches wider and you can then put a bigger (positive) offset on you rims and if you wanna street it you just have to thro a set of negative offset rims like the ones that come standard on a GU POOTROL or 80 series armsup

awwe by the way ive added you to my msn messenger list so if ya wanna chat drop us a line armsup
