try doing it yourself, its not that hard, all youll need is a fresh bottle of differential oil...ive seen them for sale SECOND HAND but good nic at just over 500

its easy to do, u just need a few mates to help you support the diff whilst u bolt it all in. G&J charge around $1100 to convert a single pegger to LSD and change ratios.

setting pinion depth and getting the carrier in the right spot is not some thing i recomend the DIYer do if you havn't done it befor or dont have a mate who has done it befor.
more so when you are using non standard gears like a 3.7:1 new 3.7 gears are around 600 to 700 can get second hand 3.45 gears for around 400 to 500 new lsd around 800 bearing kit around 100 shims to get the gear mesh right, depends where you get them |

Where abouts can you get the shims from?
My LSD has a wee bit too much lash.. guess it didn't like 4k clutch dumps, and I'd like to go 3.7's.

tickford_6, i actually meant just pulling the diff out disc to disc and bolting a complete new diff in, thats what i did, i'd never try changing the centres on my own, so out of my league!

in my eb before i paid 1000-1200 cant remember properly but i got brand new 3.73 gears and a recon lsd centre.... i must admit launched awesome hey! but i also but the s5 solinod in the gear box as well at the same time which they charged me about 100 to do at the same time as well... so u should be able to get the whole lot done for around a grand!
