borg warner conversion price

[obsession]

i rang a company today that do the diff conversions he said that if i took the standard bedy diff into him and left it for a couple of weeks it would cost $1600.00 and that hed do it inbetween other jobs then just refit it myself.

the guy here that used to do them put XA Falcon centres in and resplined the bedford axles.
so the only bedford bits were the axle tubes and axles

[Bedfordcrazy]

hey craig, what are you doing to your diff, conversion wise ?

I have a bedford diff with the borg warner conversion already done, needs a new centre (goes but whines) and the usual bits and pieces handbrake cables are sticking, reckon the slave cylinders need replacing, standard beddie stud pattern .... I'm in North Ringwood if any one interested or I'll leave it collecting dust in the garage

$1600 is not too expensive,
i was charged more and i provided the brooched planetary gears (i think thats what they were)

While you are at it you can get the axles and hubs drilled to HQ if you are putting discs on the front

LS120 if ur runnin a standard bedford speedo there is an adjuster on it but it means pulling the dash 2 pieces 2 get to it. its on the side of the speedo gauge itself.
