hey guys this is only my second time posting but I needed to ask a questions for all thoses brainiacs people who live and breath for s2ks. Last post I made I was having some noise commg from my diff and well needless to say it's only gotten worse... Now my question is what are you supposed to do to the diff if anything after you lower your car cause I can't help but to belive that that's reason that my diff went bad! Diffrent angle of the drive shaft is putting too much strain on the diff??? Or aethibg alng that line... Any help or input is always appreciTed thanks!

You are supposed to fit spacer inbetween the half-shafts and the differential... not very expensive i think... 2-piece are easier to install

Very very unlikely you damaged your diff by lowering the car. The part that has the issue is the inner CV joint. The symptom you'll notice is vibration under acceleration...especially when in a turn like a highway on ramp.

If your diff is making noises, it's probably caused by something else...too many clutch dump launches, not changing the oil or putting the wrong kind of oil in.

Hmmmmm u have anymore info on these spacers??

You don't need spacers...it has been analyzed many times. Search this forum and learn why they are not needed.
