Title: Polo G40 Gearbox - With Gripper Diff
Post by: Rob on June 09, 2010, 10:48:56 AM
The gearbox was always a good one anyhow, Drove the car with it in for a while before getting the diff fitted.

JP Race fitted the diff and at the same time i had it reconditioned just for piece of mind :-) . . . Pritty sure the diff and recon was around the £1K mark.

Really not sure of any pre load settings or anything like that. All i will say is that being a plate type diff you certainly know its there but FUCK me does it work. Bell me and i would be happy to talk you through my experiances driving with one. Take my word for it though. If you have BALLS then this WILL increase cornering speed imensley and obviously be essential for getting power down in even the most lightly modified G.

Its also only done a few thousand miles. . Maybe 5K Tops - but probably no where near that. Was a weekend car and even though i owned it for a few years it never clocked up many miles

The only 1 minor thing is that it could do with a gear selector seal as it weeps just the very smallest amount (Very common to be honest and nothing to worry about.

Gearbox will be supplied WITHOUT gear oil. There are a few available and its personal choice to be honest. I will find out what the geeks recomend though. My memory is shot and really cant remember.

Its the cleaner / painted one in the photos. (The other one is standard and also for sale)

Feel free to bell me - 07519 544 636

Please see my other posts as i have quite alot to get rid of  :-)

Price £650 + Postage (Dunno how much this will be but will find out)

LOCATED IN CHELMSFORD, ESSEX - CM1

those look more like gearboxes :D

I'm ok mate, still recovering from a broken arm though so haven't touched the polo in ages.  

By the way, best gearoil for a Gripper is Morris XFS 80/140:

Ahh cheers bro :-)

Nice one !!

Hey Haysey would you be able to keep an eye on prices and if im well off the mark with anything let me know :-)

Where i spent soooo much money i obviously want to get as much back as possible. But would like it to be a fair price if that makes sense!

Cheers fella. Respect
