Aluminum 3 Piece Quick Diff- KM

[Vertiviper]

Anyone have any experience with KM's aluminum 3 piece quick differential?



I'd like to replace my tranny before it explodes, like every plastic tranny ever built, and destroys the rest of my drivetrain. lol

i have used them but i the ones that come stock on the km's seem to be over lock tited, i suggest anti sieze on the small bolts in with this case, all in all its a decent case, between the cases out there like integy, km and turtles, i prefer the integy,
the km will do what you want by giving you a solid casing, and with a hd case and gears with the turtle diff case skirt around the diff itself, you should be good to go for a long while

Thanks for the insight. What kind of internals do you recommend? (specific part #'s would be helpful)

 

[chitown joe]

which parts? the case or the internals?

The internals. As-is i've been running the stock alloy dif that came with my 2.0 and am very hapy with it. But, I also like to make things as rugged as possible.

I know guys put in aftermarket layshafts, gears, bearings etc..

i bought mine aftermarket and installed it, don't think it was a km brand tho, mine was orange, bought it from another place off ebay. works a charm though, as far as internals, mine had the metal version, so i just put that inside the new housing. no issues.

Parts came in, the KM 3 piece dif case is PHENOMINAL. Quality is fantastic.

yup u will like it it almost makes the dif bulletproof, so to speak. couple that with the metal diff, makes a really strong setup.
