(Big bucks, especially if Dan from Diffsonline gets you one. =) Have you broken another stub or just the one so far?

I wonder if Backdraft has moved to the e46 (2001-2006 M3) set up. Everything is stronger. My 425wtq BMW is running stuff from the e36/e30 generation. My 545wtq car is using the e46 M3 rear without any issues.
Just the one stub - DSS finally got the measurements correct and all has been good since then. Took a little while though. I'm not sure about the ring gear / diff info. We'll see how well the Diffsonline differential that's in there holds up.

Sorry to hijack your thread. Good luck with the search!
