I spoke to Luke oven on saabrally and he said that he can make up these steel dif. covers if 10 people commit to buy. $100 bucks or so.

[TheRedBaron]

This is more than just a thick cover:

Steel Rear Diff Cover

Steel Rear Diff Cover: This CAD designed and CNC watercut steel rear differential cover is designed to replace the flimsy stock aluminum one. The 1/4 inch steel plate with TIG welded hump and gussets helps to prevent the flexing of the gearbox case with can cause ring and pinion gear deflection and failure. Fits 5 spds 80-93.
Price: $100

 

[the capitan]

looks identical apart from the side supports? not that you would need them? weird.....

 

[TheRedBaron]

identical to the stock one? or to the jamsaab one? Not sure about the latter, never seen one.

[sonett v4]

These plates are the same as the ones that JAMSAAB sell exept for gussets,but knowing Martin at JAMSAAB i am sure gussets could be added,he currently uses these plates on his track car which is currently running in EXCESS of 300bhp!!!

Why a group buy? They're already $100 if you order individually direct.


Now if you were getting them for $75, then I could see the need for a group buy.

Why a group buy? They're already $100 if you order individually direct.

Because they aren't on the shelf to buy. He's making a run of them. So if you want one you gotta get on the list.

 

[Boosted]

I have one from Luke and have to say it's well worth the $100. Luke is an awesome welder.

 

[ShadowWorks]

How much is posting to Scotland on that?

Just give me the weight and I will find out

I was told you need the stronger bolts as well, are they included?

Is this plate stainless or just steel?

 

[DanF.]

Here is exactly what Luke sent in response to my inquiry,

"... Hi Dan, the diff cover is pretty much a bolt on. It does not come with a new gasket, but the gaskets can be sourced fairly easily. You will need to use slightly different length bolts. The size is the same M8 as used a lot of places on the saab and commonly available at hardware stores too. I am actually sold out of these covers now. I will start a thread and if we can get 10 people to commit to buy I will do another run.

-Luke"

so um, hey, don't forget that I want one too!

Shadow- I PM'd Luke to find out the weight. So, hang in there.
