I reckon your box will be next to go roger there was a bit of a silver glitter to your old oil , be careful mate or grab a spare standard box if you see one so it is just a quick swap then save for the stronger LSD mod box , should be able to pick a standard box up for 200 ish

Just keep your eyes open for a cheap gearbox one will come up somewhere - Wacol 50 day or someone parting one out on here etc you are putting heaps through those front wheels you can feel your car grabbing from wheel to wheel for traction so be careful , it's the joys of a mod car you need to prepare to break something.

Swap you? If I smash a gearbox its $2500. Transfer case is $500.

AWD can be a b*tch sometimes
