skrphoto · 2007-10-10, 05:36 PM

hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows of a moderately price differential rebuild place in reno, OR if someone knows how to rebuild miata diffs.

i burnt up my ring and pinion at the last autocross out at lovelock and finally found another replacement (3.909 instead of 4.1) but i don't have any of the tools to properly setup the diff or i would try it myself. so if u guys can refer me to to someone or someplace that would be great = )

Driveline Specialties (I think that's what it's called) on Glendale east of Rock. They do really good work. Dunno about competitive prices, but they've got a great reputation for solid work. I've had them build a couple race car diffs for straight-lining, and they've always been quick and done good work.

oh yeah, did you ever get that thing smogged?

They did the Transfer case and CV conversion I put on my Jeep and did awesome work. I'd recommend them.

Also, I know C & C in sparks knows Miata's pretty well, just not sure if you're in a hurry or not.

where the hell is c&c in sparks, i've heard of them and people mention them frequently but i never found them.....and i hear they do take awhile for things, but if the price is right the wait won't be bad either i guess = /
