I fitted my new diff guard tonight. I could not put the big heavy ring roller thing back on afterwards. Would not fit on !! Dont understand what is purpose is ? Is it a guard or some kind of counterballance ? :D :whoosh:

yeah they are total ****e dont worry about it mate! they're supposed to make a difference at motoway speeds but i never noticed when i took it off me rangey!
 
Cool. OK. Drove to work on the Motorway this morning and didnt notice any vibration. Thought it might be some kind of damper / absorber. Ill leave it off then. Thanks for the advice.
 
Pretty good thanks. They are definately better than what we had before. Look mean as well. My mate got a set for his 90 after seeing mine. He got slightly larger tho. I tried his ones on and we would have had no chance fitting them on.

I will do a lift at some point this year and trim out the arches in preperation for slightly larger though.

Cheers for all your advice.
 
fitted my qt diff guard just ground away a bit of the edge of the diff guard to get the vibration damper to fit back on

took about 2 mins to grind some away

I did exactly that after driving and getting a vibe at about 120 kph, refitted the damper with the 'adjustment' and all is well.

This vibration problem does not affect all cars despite the specs being the same.
