Just send it to Baltimore and get a different one put in for like 6-7 grand....when or if I buy another V, this will be my first mod.... You have like 3 options for a new different diff... I broke mine at 350wrhp...

$3200 for diff and both halfshafts (installed) IIRC diff was 1800 and halfshafts about 450 each.

Is the 3200 dollar deal an upgrade or stock junk?

It was a stock 06 diff and half shafts. The 05 HS's were 1.25 diameter, the 06's are 1.50 diameter. The 06 diff is a "little" stronger than the 05
