Subaru Rear Diff Code?

Featured Replies

There is a painted code on the top of the rear diff. Anyone have the chart for the rear diff codes?

 

Thanks, Larry

 

Found this out there on the web:

 

This information is from the 2008 Factory Service Manual and im not sure if it applies to any other model years.

 

The two letter code is supposed to be on the rear differential in white paint.

 

Rear Differential

 

Code---Reduction gear ratio---LSD

 

CD --- 4.444 --- Viscous

CF --- 4.444 --- Viscous

EW --- 3.900 --- Viscous

HY --- 3.545 --- Torsen

JE --- 4.111 --- Viscous

T1 --- 3.900 --- None

T2 --- 4.111 --- None

TP --- 4.444 --- None

XJ --- 4.111 --- None

XU --- 3.272 --- Viscous

XZ --- 3.083 --- Viscous

 

Can anyone confirm the years the codes would apply to?

Yes, they are on the top. Letters are an 1' or so high.

 

They are under the support so you'd have to drop the diff.
