- There are no special parts required to install a Quaife ATB Differential, beyond what may normally be needed to install a stock unit. The basic parts needed will be differential bearings, transmission or rear end gaskets and possibly some shims if required.
- When running a Quaife ATB Differential in a standard transaxle gearbox, we recommend you use the oil recommended by your vehicle’s manufacturer – the Quaife ATB Differential does not require any special lubricants
- Torque-biasing helical gear limited slip differential - not a plate type, viscous coupling or clutch pack differential. Quaife does not specify torque bias ratio details. The Quaife ATB differential is an all-helical gear design. The angle and tooth form of the helix used, the number of pinions used and many other factors, (including the individual vehicle application in question), all contribute to how the differential behaves and biases torque across an axle
- All of Quaife’s products are precision manufactured from certified steel billets and inspected to ISO9001-2008 standards in Britain
- Includes assembled differential unit only. Bearings, gears, gaskets/seals etc are not included
