2/3 series Torsen diffs: is the center block the same?
So I bought a 3 series Torsen and a gear install kit from a guy. I guess I got what I paid for because I opened the box to see that the center block that slides out (whatever you call it) was missing! The guy swears he shipped it but is sure as h*ll didn't make it to me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> . Anyway, will that piece out of my 2 series fit the 3 series? If not, I don't suppose anyone would have a blown 3 series torsen unit with that part still in tact that they'd want to get rid of?? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I would guess that it is the same. It fits between the axles and they are the same length in both rears so that block should be the same width.

I just put the block from my stock 2 series and the one from the slp 3 series take out I bought side by side and I couldnt tell a difference. Same thickness, same holes same cut-outs.

It's called a paddle, and you should be fine with that one if it's in good shape. You only need a different paddle with 4.10 gears! Hope this helps. <img src="http://www.stanggang.com/smilies/smiley-faces26.gif" alt=" - " />
