Question Differential Work In SF?

Does anyone know which shop does good work for differentials? I want to switch my stock sc400 diff out for an Auto TT supra diff. What should I expect to shell out for the work? Thanks in Advance Lexbros!

Are you looking to just swap it out or are you looking to rebuild the diff?

If you want to do a straight swap, I don't think it's too hard...I believe it's plug 'n play for the auto TT LSDs...for the 6spd TT LSD, the axles are different and you're probably better off finding a whole rear sub-frame to swap out...drive shafts might be incompatible, too...

im just looking to swap it out. Auto TT for the stock sc400 diff. Do you know of any good shops that can do it? For those who have done it, what was the cost?

This whole time I though you needed an expertise in working on differentials. Working on differentials(internally) and swapping them out are two different things. This also can explain the lack of replies.


If you just need to swap, then most of the "Recommended Independent shops for mods" on the STICKY will do this work.

Just contact each shop for a quote.


Impact Performance is probably your closest.
