WTB OEM Rubber Exhaust Hangers

Looking to buy all the original exhaust hangers from the catalytic converter to the back so I need 6 total. I've tried getting the ROL one's from O'Reilly but they seem to be very stiff and too small.

Ah I see. Yeah I guess this means that taking the diff out and having the shop look at it would be pointless.

How long have you had your Weir? Just wondering if it's at least lasting pretty long.

Re: Differential Sounds Like A Jet Turbine

Its unfortunate, but this is a common problem with Weir stuff. Their manufacturing is unreliable, so in most cases their gears won't be completely true. I'd say get that checked out ASAP. Ah so this is common with Weir? I think that's what I was trying to confirm but can't seem to find anyone who c...

Re: Differential Sounds Like A Jet Turbine

DOES the whine disappear completely when off the throttle - zero load on the engine, the come back when engine braking/downshifting/putting the R&P load on the driven side rather then their drive side? The whine doesn't seem to disappear when completely off the throttle. I called up Weir Perfor...

Re: Differential Sounds Like A Jet Turbine

Re: Differential Sounds Like A Jet Turbine

The sound seems to go away when letting off the throttle. Had a worker from the shop that did the work drive it. They said the sound is typical for weir performance ring & pinions and that mine was not as bad as they've experienced with other corolla weir installs. Sounds iffy but they said to d...

Differential Sounds Like A Jet Turbine

Long story short, I drove my car to break in a new weir performance ring & pinion plus all new rear end rebuild parts(pinion nut, seal, crush sleeve, pinion bearings, carrier bearings and pumpkin gasket) and my differential whines like a jet turbine. The sound disappears when I let off the gas b...

Re: WTB: Differential Carrier for 1985 Corolla GTS

Does it cost alot to ship? I'm closer to San Diego. Also, are the bearing caps flush where the bearings would sit?
