    Rear Diff

    Anyone know if the rear diff from Evo 5 or 6 will fit the legnum and also the ayc pump.
    Thanks

    Pump I don't know but the diffs are interchangeable. I have an evo 8 SAYC in mine. The lugs for the rear mount points on the diff are shorter so I have added 10mm spacers to extend the lugs back to VR4 dimensions.

    Hi nick, long time no speak!
    Any idea how much I should be charged for swapping a diff and is it something a DIYer can do?

    Ive had a reputable Evo mechanic quote £300 plus VAT including oils, how does that sound?
    youtube "tha got beef wi me"
    i made that.

    It sounds slightly steep to me but not horrendous. I used to do it in about 4 to 5 hours without a ramp. There are no special tools needed but plenty of awkwardness and bleeding the hydraulic side of the ayc is interesting if you are doing it with no gadgets.

    Thanks Nick, I doubt I could bleed the AYC, i thought it was just an empty and refil job. I haven's started looking into it properly yet.
    Are there any mobile mechanics on here anymore, a couple of lads cam and did a seal in my gearbox about 5 years ago but looking through the posts its very quiet on here these days. I dont fancy driving the car far.
    Nice to hear from you
