bigo1966 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 (edited) So now that the sedamn has a very low range, the weak link is the rear axles/diff. Any thoughts/comments on possibly taking a toyota 3.9 IFS front diff and axles with hubs and mating all that crap to the subaru components? Or what about stronger subaru components? I searched and didn't find much. Edited January 20, 2010 by bigo1966 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubyGl Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 might look for parts from rally suby's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 might look for parts from rally suby's. What do you think they use? My Hatch is running 4.11 front and rear with 30in tires. I have broken some rear axles but no stubs yet. If you dont have alot of angle to the axles, it shouldnt be much of a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast I Drive Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 With my stock gears and 31" tires and welded rear diff, the Beast eats stubs like candy if I goose it at the wrong time. I have never broken a rear axles, it was always the stubs that go. Wheelspin is what makes them break, with your low gearing you should be able to keep that under control. I would wheel it with the stock stuff first, and if it cant handle it then maybe try an R180 rear diff or something. Or solid axle... -Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott in Bellingham Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Nissan / datsun rear diff, same as Nissan 720 4x4 pickup front diff, bolts right up no mods, would need to make own bearing carriors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
