So my question is if the R&P on the front differential is the same one as on the rear in regards to being the same part numbers?
I know the ratios have to match obviously, but is the shaft the same length as the one used in the transaxle?

If I wanted to replace both R&P's in the rear and front can I just order two of the same part number?
Thanks.

And he was kind enough to NOT include the price. Or the price of installation either.

I'm apparently not so kind. Is it $4,000, $5,000?

We are lucky new parts are available. I watch the syncro part classifieds and good used transaxle parts just don't come up often. And better yet, different matching ratios.
