Post subject:  Vitara Diff and CV's price
Hey guys,

What do you reckon would be a good price for a used front vitara diff (alloy :( ) and full CV assembly. I'm not selling mine but there is a vitara at the local wreckers and i wanted to pick it up as a spare as my CV's have started clicking. Quoted 400 which seemed expensive but i really have no idea.

Cheers for any input.

its all about supply and demand... and how common they are in your area. I picked up a complete steel diff for $500 (no cv's) but they are rare as over here. $400 bucks sounds reasonable for a complete set up inc cvs from a wreckers trying to make a profit, but if you're in no hurry, keep an eye out here as they often come up for next to nothing. I gave away an old complete alloy front diff as i had no use for it :wink:

Fair enough. A steel one would be ideal and that money seems about right cause they seem to be rare as rocking horse shit :D . It'd just be nice to pick one up ahead of time as a bit of insurance but seeing as though the car isn't worth too much i cant justify 400 just for a spare. Anyone know of a good place to source them in Brisbane?

diff is useless cause youll never replace an alloy diff with an alloy diff

outer CV's are $60 odd on ebay for a new one, the inner dont break to often

if anything I would keep a spare outer CV and worry about other bits if you need em, you can still drive it with teh diff gears hanging out in 2wd

Good point about the CV's but it'd still be good to have a spare alloy one hanging around cause they tend to break quite easily (as i'm led to believe) and the steel ones are so damn hard to find. And i dont want to be stuck looking for one with a suzy that i cant go offroad in. There's a heap of guys on here that have done the alloy to alloy swap until a GV housing came along so it seems a viable option. Will keep in mind the thoughts about the CV's though, thanks for that.

From my personal experience with Suzifour wreckers..

CV's $150 pair
Alloy Diff housing (Front) $100

Steel Diff housing (front) $200
Steel Diff carrier $300

Of course you should always call them for an exact price. Maybe it's the wog in me, But I always ask to do a 'cheaper for cash' deal, and they usually do.
