Re: Wreckers - Australia
Hey Vince,
I don't think there's enough of our cars in Australia for a wreckers unfortunately.
Best bet for parts is Pontiworld in NSW, Dave sometimes has parts, though mostly new.
Otherwise weekly searches on Gumtree is about it.
I myself am chasing a 3rd/4th gen LSD rear end and aluminium tailshaft if you find one
What parts are you chasing?

Hi Mate,
been a while.
looking for 4th gen door trims.
I have a 4th gen diff that I bought a while ago that I might end up selling.
just trying to see if I can convert my Borg Warner to LSD without the big $$$.

Re: Wreckers - Australia
I thought all the Bord Warner diffs were 9 bolt Positraction LSD units?
In Melbourne there is a wrecker/importer down at Tyabb that has a few third gens for parts. Pretty well picked over and not a lot left though.

Re: Wreckers - Australia
I'm pretty sure all Borg Warner 9 bolt diffs were "Posi-Traction" LSD
There is a local guy who has parts for them:

Re: Wreckers - Australia
9 bolts are available in both non-lsd and lsd.
My drum unit is non-lsd, my disc brake unit is lsd.
