Installing a new diff centre
My diff is stuffed and I'd like to fix it.
A friend has offered to help me change it over (for another second hand centre) at his house.
Is it simple to do or do I need a mechanic to fit it?
My car is an 87 Turbo with open-wheeler diff.
Thanks
Daniel

By diff center: Do you mean the whole differential assemly as assembled in the carrier; or do you mean a different ring and pimion ger?
Changing the diff assembly is straight bolt-in. Installing and setting up a new ring and pinion is a more complicated affair
