i posted this in the a2 forum and i thought i would try here also. has anyone here put the differential bolt kit in their tranny. i have my tranny off and i figured i would put the bolts in being that it has 150,000 miles on it. who has done it and how involved was the process. even though i worked on dubs for plenty of years, i never had a tranny apart. by the way, it is a 2y tranny.

yes, just did it.

you have to open the case (obviously), get to the diff, then take it out, drill out the factory rivets, and put bolts in its place. it's not that hard, but youmight as well put a bunch of other stuff (like new bearings, screwed sync rings etc..) in while it is apart. it adds up. i bought my bolt kit for $28 USD. it's a peloquin bolt kit.
BTW: i am taking lots of pictures of the tranny rebuild, so as to answer ALL your questions. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
