    Unfortunately, probably not.....
     
    It seems everything is getting more and more expensive for our 'little cars' these days....
     
    Makes you wonder what a 4.11 or 4.44 is worth?

    $250 for a 2lt diff centre was a going rate in Adelaide's wrecking yards in late 90's.

    There was a local escort wrecker in perth a while back that asked $250 for a center, if you came back again he'd charge $300, his ethic was if you blew your old one and had to pay a pretty penny for a new one you'd learn a lesson. Sort of a clean up the streets policy....... Wise man, third time and $350 I learned to think twice before dropping the clutch

    Hey Flighter the place was a gold mine but he got shut down, it was a bit of a dump, the lot got taken to landfill

    I have a complete 3.54 diff, with wheels, so $500? :P
     
    I thought it woulda been rude to ask more then $150 for a complete 3.54 diff...
