Sorry, are you talking about the diff bearings or the fd bearings

Diff bearings Phil

@rattymcclelland did you buy the bearing option with the lsd.

My lsd cost me £350 off ebay

unused 2nd hand. The mfactory rebuild kit had everything in it, all bearings etc. All wee genuine Honda parts in the kit.

I see that the diff bearings that paw used in a build on a 5th gen box for someone on here were genuine honda parts which are taper bearings - part no 91005-PG2-004 (Koyo 40x75x21mm) and part no.91006-PX5-008 (NTN 40x68x22mm).
The parts that @newkid got from mfactory were ball bearings - aside from being a different type of bearing which i think is important - they may be the wrong size. Assuming 5th gen and 4th gen diff bearings would be the same for fitting mfactory lsd then you have the sizes for the oem parts - a quick check with a set of vernier calipers should highlight any discrepancy

Cheers for the help guys, especially @vanzep for getting the info I needed

Safe to say don't buy the mfactory bearing option as bearings they supply are Koyo 40x80x18

Bearings needed are part no 91005-PG2-004 (Koyo 40x75x21mm) and part no 91006-PX5-008 (NTN 40x68x22mm)

These have been ordered now from Honda, means Ive had to shell out more but gets things back on track.

I have a Kaaz not a Quaife

My diff bearings didnt get changed as they apparently looked fine.

So they pulled them off the old diff ? Would have thought theyd had needed shimming either way

No idea, I gave the lots to a specialist and they fitted it. The dif is the only part of the gearbox not to have given me any issues so far.
