Bespoke auto developments have supplied the diffs (ex MGR bankrupt stock) and they have been more than helpfull, but I am still without a servicable diif and therfore car. Can anyone help?
    Sorry to hear the problems you have had, I assume you have had refunds on the dud diffs you have been given? I'm not sure if the diff was a bespoke part for MG or available elsewhere as it was fitted to other makes/models?

    No, it is not a bespoke part. It is the Dana Hydratrak LSD, fitted to lots of cars, including TVRs.

    When mine was replaced, it was ordered direct from Australia where they are manufactured, but I would be surprised if Dreadnought couldn't help you in some way.

    Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.

    Thank you Gents for all your advice, it's appreciated. £520 + VAT is a bit painful! :I will have to see. I am still sorting out things with bespoke at the moment. I will keep you posted.
