    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I looked on gentlemen of salvage and they have multiple pictures of diffs from many different angles and all of the mounting points look exactly the same. I just thought to make sure I could ask the question here and get the answer. I can already tell from being under the car that changing the...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    After the day I had yesterday here with insults basically from the get go I cannot tell who is serious and rude and who is joking. My primary concern as specified in my initial comment is the RPM and not the fuel savings. So many people have fixated on the fuel issue when I stated clearly that...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    Obviously I can buy one diff. Just going off pictures they seem to be identical in the mounting points. The only reason I came here to ask the question was I thought that would be a much simpler solution as somebody might know the answer. I work on my car on the street outside of my house on a...

    I know that these memes are popular with young girls on Instagram and I'm starting to think that you need to reattach your balls.

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    Oh FYI, my trip is Belgium, German, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Portugal. Barely touching France on the way to Belgium and from Italy to Spain. But hey, why not take out my spare tire from my spare tire space to put in an LPG tank in order to save money that I don't care about and not solve my...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I have said many times that I am not concerned about fuel cost. I am also not concerned about the casings of the diff. I just mentioned those things as minor bonuses in changing the diffs. Why would I spend a few thousand on an LPG system and slightly bigger tires (as was suggested) for...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I don't understand what you are talking about. I posted three different questions on two different forums so as to get a wide range of people to look at them in order to get the answers to my questions. It just happens that RRPhil chose to answer me on the other forum, and his answer was...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    Like I said, you people throw out insults but you don't have any facts. Literally telling me that the gearbox will not go into fifth gear when it has a manual function that can be moved into fifth gear. But then finding it offensive when I pointed out this fact to you... Any decent person...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    My concern is RPM and having the engine doing less constant revolutions over a one month trip. Obviously driving constantly at 5,000 RPM puts more wear on an engine than driving constantly at 1,000 RPM. That is not something that I need to debate here. Will the engine labor at a lower RPM? It...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I agree but if I look at the torque curve for my VANOS equipped engine it will be OK. I posted the torque curve earlier on here. Here it is again to save you looking for it.

    I'm not playing the victim, all of you people crying because I won't listen to your dumb ideas are playing the victim. Don't you get it, none of you have the answer to the question that I asked so instead of admitting that you don't know what you are talking about you have stupid ideas that...

    L322 NV225 solenoid leak

    I would assume so but the problem is that the oil is coming out of the gap between the solenoid and the transfer case so I have to know the parts to buy before I pull it apart otherwise the car cannot drive and I need it to be able to drive. It is a small drip so I am not in an urgent rush. If...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I have an enormous amount of mechanical experience but I don't really care to justify it to you. I don't know anyone who doesn't understand that a lower RPM for many hours is better for the longevity of an engine. I am not talking about an engine the way that Land Rover designed it. I am...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I used to live in Portugal and I drove a Renault Cleo from there to England 10 years ago, so I know the trip reasonable well. I will visit a friend in Belgium and a friend in Switzerland on the journey so the ferry is not an option. I will also probably visit a friend in northern Spain, where...

    The picture is of a brand new solenoid and the inner seal is not circular it is shaped.

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    Maybe you should've read a little bit more because I need to know if the diff will fit and everyone seems to want to talk about everything else. People keep telling me to just do it but there is no point in just doing it if it won't fit. Instead of someone who actually knows what they are...

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    I don't think you would believe anything that I showed you. Which is why I said I wouldn't waste my time answering your questions. The 2.76 diff exists, which is all that matters. Who cares which car it was put in? I just need to know if it will fit in my car. I would not care if it was from a...

    Google search "l322 diff ratio 2.76". Answer in the attached image. Time spent 30 seconds. (I already said search the diff ratio on google but I guess you did not do that.)

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    Like I said before, RRPhil had actual knowledge and was happy to give me that knowledge, on another forum, and admit to what he did not know. Whereas you people have no actual knowledge and yet spent yesterday lecturing me as if you were geniuses in this topic. Hilarious.

    My crazy diff ratio change idea

    And I have said maybe 10 times that there is no point in me JFDI if I do not know if the diffs will fit when somebody might know the answer and can just tell me. I have no rush to do this job. I am not going for several months. I may not even want to do this job. I asked a simple question...
