Hi all, just selling the last bits of my ill fated 750i and have had a very good offer for the diff. He needs a courier and was wondering if any of you guys know the basic weight of a large case LSD?

[DanThe]

Id take a guess at 35kg

[325isporttech1]

Thats what i was thinking between 25-35kg

Could be a nice little earner for me as could drop it off for him as ive got an interior to delivery around the corner from him A courier will be a rip off im guessing.

Get on some bathroom scales and record your weight, get on the scales again with the diff in your arms and the difference in weight is how heavy the diff is (ish)

Edit, id say its 35-40kg

You're looking at 35-40kg for a 188mm medium (e30 large) case diff. a 750i will have a 210mm large case diff, bigger than anything fitted to a E30. It's got to be 50kg at least.

They look like they're off a truck!

or just put the diff on the scales!!!!!

i'm almost sure a medium case diff is around 40kg, so i'd guess a large case is closer to 50kg.

lean forward.

All in the ETK! Assuming it's an ex E32 diff, then it's 46.64 kg.

ok! did'nt think of that. what with it being too big to see the dial without a person holding it
