Hi all, i have just bought a second hand 3.64 lsd diff to replace my 3.91 open diff.The problem is that the speedo sender has the wrong plug,the 3.91 has two small round pins and the 3.64 has two flat spade connectors.Is there a easy way around this,can i swap sender units or do i need a need a new plug,if so does it matter which way the wires go ?.
The 3.64 diff has no play on the shafts and turns smoothly once moving,the odd thing is that if you leave it a short while it becomes difficult to start turning but once moving it is easy to turn forward and backward.Have i bought a duff diff ?
Thanks in advance - Rob
