Subject: Re: D44 swap....and D36 diagnosis by RestoMod57 on 2010/2/2 16:38:58 There is a fairly recent string on some steps of rebuilding the D36 - if you want to tackle it. http://www.corvette-guru.com/modules/ ... pe=&topic_id=7466&forum=1 I recently rebuilt mine, also 3.07, but I installed 3.54 gearing instead. It's not difficult, just time consuming. If you do, I would also suggest replacing all bearings, cups and seals. Timken makes the original bearings and I found their fitment to be perfect. Don't buy the other brands if possible - one of the differential cups was much thinner than the original when I bought it as a "package" from JT's. You will also need setup bearings, probably new clutch packs, and specialty tools (dial indicator at minimum). There are very experienced gurus here that know alot more about it than I do - just letting you know some FYIs I found. Good work, it looks great! |
