Desperately trying to resist the urge to re paint the panels while they're off....
Be a shame to miss the opportunity....

Enough of sensible already, out with the 3.55's and in with the 4.10's. That should liven the bugger up...

Ooh. 3.55s. Off topic a little, but how much of a pig is the swap ? Assume you swapped the whole unit in situ from the pics ?
(I've still got the 3.23 in mine and I think we can all agree its not the ideal combo for my current setup. Now whilst I dont want to be pulling 4.10 kinda revs its kind of on my list to liven the back a bit.)

Yes swapped the whole diff for a 4.10 version, it's an easy job. This was originally 3.23 as well but I swapped that for a 3.55 diff which I still felt was a bit lame so swapped again. There always seems to be someone on facebook moaning their gears are too low for the motorway so it shouldn't be too hard to set up a no money swap if that's what you want to do.

Been painting the rocker panels (sills) this week. The rocker panel trims I have call for the rest of the panel to be painted dark argent. I used a dark silver metallic and added a bit of mirraflake for a bit of added sparkle, it really doesn't show up in photos unfortunately.
