Here is the funny thing, the biggest actual potential problem that I have so far been alerted to is the torque converter lockup. Here is what the ZF5HP guru RRPhil said on another forum: "Some aspects of the driveline control are vehicle speed...

I have no concern for how I seem here. I asked a simple question and I was insulted and attacked from the start. Those people will never change their opinion of me, especially after I called them out on their ridiculous behavior. I will not...

I think you are imagining an extreme situation and not looking at this in reality. For example, someone else said that the oil pressure would be lower and that would damage the engine. But I can drive now at 40mph at the same approximate revs...

You bothered because this is the right thing to do, share the information that you have with people that are looking for solutions. I have found an SKF distributor near me and I will email them and see if they can help. Thank you for your effort.

FNL is flanged housing designation from SKF. TFL is the size of the double lip seal that goes in it. Little bit confused with the lettering/number on the seal, but It may be a place to start and ring an SKF place. Dont know why I bother, but...

I found the o-rings on simplybearings.co.uk who have a simple page where you put in all of the dimensions and find the product. I ordered both of the o-rings that you suggested, getting five of each o-ring because it was only a few pence more...

On a different forum someone explained the outcome, because they knew someone who did something like this, and they said it was fine, just less acceleration.

And yet I am not increasing the fuel economy with differentials, which I have explained so many times now I have lost count. It is like you didn't read anything that I said. Which once again proves my point about this place...

"Bend over and take it" means to not respond and just accept being insulted. I did not do that. I was insulted and patronized and for a little while I tolerated it but after about the 10th time I had enough. I eventually decided not to bend...

And yet I did not start the aggressive condescending patronizing behavior. I just didn't bend over and take it. So if you want to put it in terms of a war, you guys are Putin and I am Ukraine.

And yet if you look in the beginning, it was not me who was rude and condescending. I didn't come here to create some fun, I simply came here to get an answer to a legitimate question. If someone asking a reasonable question creates this...

Actually as I have said, I have seen other people ask questions here, get abused and then just disappear from this forum. So things have not been ok for a year. The only difference is that I didn't disappear, I have stayed to point out what is...

Why would I go elsewhere when you clowns are still coming here making your ridiculously stupid comments? I have been reading this forum for a while, because I do not know everything. I mean think about that for a minute, if I knew everything...

This is after you have insulted me and abused me for two days, it's my fault?

Except these are for sale because they exist, and they are for the 8 speed so logically they have a lower ratio. I do not need to see an official piece of documentation to know that something exists when it has been mentioned all across the...

Actually I have seen many people leave this forum after being insulted and abused by the arrogant regulars The only difference is that I stuck around and didn't bend over. So in fact this is quite a good representation of this particular forum...

That was only in response to you saying that I would never find the answer here implying that if you didn't have the answer then nobody would have the answer. But when I came here I knew that it was possible that somebody might immediately have...

Actually I got the answer here, that it was not a crazy idea, and I got the answer somewhere else that it is a good idea. I already told you that I got the answer here but you can't admit that because then you would be wrong. I only told you...

If you look at the attached image it shows the specific vehicle that it comes from. This took me one minute to find using a simple Google search. Maybe the issue is not me, it is your understanding of how to use Google?

That would be the most stupid thing to do because people ask questions and interact to come to a final conclusion, as they have done elsewhere with me on this topic. And besides, once the idiots here came with their condescending patronizing...

Oh no, hurty words. As this thread was mine that I created I would suggest that you should leave? Given that you and others said that this idea was crazy, and that I would almost certainly not get my answer here, and you were all wrong on both...

And yet she is still here in the conversation so she can't be that bored.

You are so ridiculously stupid, I can't even begin to understand what it must be like to live inside your head. It was a comment designed to imply that I would never find the answer, because I had said I would just wait to see if someone would...

Why would I do that when there is so much comedic gold here still to enjoy?

Google search "buy l322 diff 2.76" and you will see that they exist (see the image). As I have already said before, I do not care where they come from, I do not even care if they come from a BMW X5, because I need to put it in my car, not take...

I really don't know if you are mentally challenged or not, but I did not know the answer until today, a few hours ago, by asking the same question on two different forums. So are you suggesting that three days ago I should have gone forward in...

Just use Google, make a more detailed search, and you will find the answer. I have seen them available for sale on eBay with that ratio and I have mentioned that fact in my comments on this thread. For the love of God just do the research...

Just do it!!! You guys are so hilarious. Let's try some reading comprehension: if you had read my posts, you would know that my trip is not for several months, and this was an idea, not some desperate panicked need for something to be fixed...

I almost forgot to tell you, on another forum where I asked the same question, somebody responded that a friend of his did something very similar to what I have thought to do. He said that it worked fine and the only issue was the slight...

Is that actually a self portrait?
