The SS/SC runs the F35. it has a final of 4.05 you can swap in a 4.45 final drive.

Alanoo, you still want numbers for the 4.41 final drive parts? PM me to remind me on Monday

BLKLS

if someone was to do this, how would we recalabrate our speed-o?

Maven

Youd have to get tuned if possible for your vehicle, or run different sized tires.

BLKLS

so its not like i hear about integras, they just change the pickup sensor.....

Maven

Nope.

f23 needs to use f35 final drive (if motor has power)

Anyone ever come up with the part number??? I'm considering a trans build up this winter. Very interested in Vue gears...

Maven

iTrader: (1)

yup, it just wasnt posted in public.

These are the ring gear and shaft, list prices are over $500 for the pair.
12571819
12571821

Theres a seal and a lube guide youll need. maybe $30

You may also need the differential itself about $225 list
12571822

If you need the diff itself youll also need new bearings to the tune of $247 list
93334162(x 2)

And of course theres labor......with the trans out of car, Id say anything under $400 labor would be an absolute STEAL of a price.(expect to see figures hover near $600us at most shops)

EvilMonkey

haha, so I guess I should just keep an eye out for a salvage trans.... But thanks for the info anyway.

If I found a complete trans, would I be able to just swap the diffs? I'm wondering about the axles...

No you need the diff and the output shaft.

BLKLS

does the out put shaft come with the gears on it or do they have to be pressed on?

Maven

iTrader: (1)

no, its just a shaft, youll need to disassemble yours and install your Reverse Gear , 5th/Reverse Synchronizer Assembly ,Bearings, 3rd Driven Gear, 4th Driven Gear, and 5th Driven Gear to the new Output Shaft

BLKLS

ok, thanks. i still need to get the books for my car. then i can look and see how do-able/ cost effective it will be. its starting to sound like more of a pain in the ass then its worth. will i need a hot plate for the gears or can i get them on without one?

Maven

iTrader: (1)

A hot plate and a freezer make assembling the shaft easier, but you still need a press, and you MUST have a press to disassemble it, 3rd and 4th gear are TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT press fits.

Ill look tomorrow and see if they are selling assembled output kits.....there was a time when they were.....not sure anymore.

BLKLS

i have a press at work its just a matter of if i have something that will press and hold...

Maven

iTrader: (1)

Press and hold?

BLKLS

press off the gears while holding the shaft. my head works strangly sorry.

Maven

iTrader: (1)

You need a bearing splitter plate. Its a two piece job that you boltaround the shaft so that its edge is under the gear you wanna get off, then you support that on the press and force out the shaft.

Is there assembled output shaft kits? Also is the differential different or just the ring gears?

stangetr

the diff are the same, its the output shaft, ring gear and the reluctor ring location for the vss pickup and the case halves are different

flaminace

wait wait wait, both the vue and cobalt have the l61 engine. how is the vue transmission not just a direct swap for the cobalt?

flaminace

Anyone?

BLKLS

Different platforms, different subframes, different mounting points.

flaminace

custom brackets?
