Where do all the diffs come from???
« on: January 13, 2006, 13:41:40 »
After reading another thread something suddenly dawned on me....

Everytime I blow a diff I just buy a second hand one and to be honest so do all my mates.  Ive blown 5 diffs in total over 8 years

And some of my mates have blown more BUT they never buy a new one, just 2nd hand ones so if we have used like 6 each I have a question?  Thats 3 vehicles worth of diffs?!?!?!?  Where do all the diffs come from?

Like coal.....are diffs running out??

Now you see that is exactly why you should shoot first and ask questions later. You either shoot him and gain the diff he was carrying, or shoot him, and save your diff from disappearing  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Nothing to do with the blooming fairies - must be 2 around somewhere from the 1992 200Tdi 110 County that was stolen from my drive in 1995.
Owned from new and I intended to keep it for ever hence it had been wax injected etc etc.
