Fixed....



Mike,the price is not that bad on the Drexler,was more expensive a few years ago.


I think their driveshafts are expensive....but so are GKN Motorsport.

If I have to buy a budget diff for a non-LSD car,I go for a Quaife.
If I need something serious,Drexler it is.
Simple as that.

One of the cars I crewed for had a Wavetrac. Crazy setup.

I'd love to get a drexler and get the ring and pinion polished.

The gears are a bit funky in the Wavetrac...

Let me ask one of my friends.
Might get a used but rebuilt Drexler for a reasonable price for you...

Send you a pm in the next few days!
