    Revshift 12mm Differential Studs and Spacers

    We now have 12mm diff studs and spacers for sale!

    The spacers are made from 6061 aircraft quality billet aluminum. The studs are class 12.9 alloy with hex key reliefs for easy installation. The flange nuts are zinc plated to prevent corrosion.

    These spacers mount the differential in the stock location when using our 12mm offset subframe bushings. This will help maintain the proper pinion angle and prevent driveline issues. The studs keep the spacers in place for ease of installation.

    Revshift is a performance engineering and manufacturing company located in Metro Detroit, MI. Our parts are designed and manufactured under one roof. We design, engineer, and test the parts ourselves. Engine / motor mounts, bushings, suspension for BMW E28, E30, E34, E36, E46, E8X, E9X, F22, F32, F8X, Z3, Z4, N54.






    Here they are all packaged up and ready to head your way:

    nice product. I suppose the studs will make it easier to get the diff mounted up there with the subframe in the car. last time I did it with everything on the ground.

            it's meant to be used with shorter subframe bushings. better roll center and reduced toe/camber without changing ride height.

              No its used to shim the diff back down to factory position when using raised sbframe bushings to allow use of STD diff bushing (not offset) and to keep pinion angle at factory specs.

              Has nothing to do with ride height.

                      whoa this is brilliant. whenever I am slapping a diff in an E30 I can NEVER get the stupid thru holes on the subframe to libe up w/ the holes on the diff to get the bolts started. Studs should eliminate that problem.

                      As for the spacers, I still don't understand exactly how that works.

                        you only need them if you have shorter subframe bushings.

                          I've always used m12x1.5 studs in my diffs. Makes quick diff swaps so much easier!
