RIGHT!
So soon after the AST top mount group buy comes another fine money saving offer from the Wobba!
In conjunction with Cliosport and Gripper Differentials Ltd comes an offer I know many of you are interested in, especially you hard track day peeps who are fed up of your inside wheel spinning up under power on those pesky tight bends or losing grip in the rain and recent snow
Some of you may have some questions, but before I go into that I'd like to state the cost, as this will be the main prohibiting factor with many of you.
- Diff: £605
OE Crown wheel work & fitting: £150
Special bolt on crown wheel kit with a choice of ratios 14/60, 13/59 or 12/63: £430.00
Friction welded (-10mm, Guaranteed unbreakable) driveshaft: £30
Fitting to gearbox: £185
The above DOES NOT INCLUDE 17.5% VAT
So, for me this will cost a basic outlay of £887.13 Inc VAT not including delivery. Personally my diff will get fitted elsewhere, but I want Gripper to modify the Crown Wheel as it will minimise problems with liability should it go wrong.
I won't go into major technical details, or attempt to use fancy words to market this group buy as it really is for people who know what they want already and it is a fairly hardcore spec conversion. If you are interested but don't know that much you can look at my newbie thread HERE or google for info.
The crown wheel mod that needs to be done (unless you are a truly loopy individual and buy a bolt on crown wheel to allow you to easily change gear ratios!) to fit the diff. The suppliers are not the only specialists that could do this mod but I would advise it. The turnaround for the work needed is 24-48 hours.
The driveshaft work may not be necessary, and it may be possible to run a valver passenger shaft instead. However, the new sits to the left more in the gearbox housing and for a Williams (with widetrack) will likely need 10mm of shaft to be removed. This is done using friction welding, and is guaranteed by them to never break. Turnaround for this job is 24 hours.
The reason we are doing this with Cliosport is because I was informed they are also putting forward a group buy at about the same time, so it makes sense to join forces.
Normally, the diff itself is £650 plus VAT not £605. It's possible we could get a slightly better discount, I will keep you posted.
