the minispares x pin is angled at 80 deg 90 deg

the minisport one ids 90 deg 90 deg

making the minispares one stronger!

I think minisport have redesigned their 4 pin to be like minispares with the different pin angles. But with that said I would still go with minispares!

Carl broke one a couple of years ago. it was a bit of a mess, with not as much torque through it as the Minispares ones have had.

Glad I had a read of this, I was heading on to getting a mini sport one in the next few weeks.

If in doubt... flat out! The words of a true legend

1st to provide proof of a running Bimmy Conversion!

Brisbane ,Australia

the Torque-master diff was most probably made by a company called "KG Engineering" here in Australia,,, they also made 5 & 6 speed dog-boxes & quaife type LSDs too

Now closed down

The MiniTorque diff was the first of the 4 pins to be produced. The first version I had lasted about 2 months, before ejecting on of the pins through the back of my gearbox casing/diff housing. It was replaced under warranty, with the Mk2 version. Which had roll pins to stop the pins been ejected. This design was purchased by Minisport and is what they sell as there 4 pin diff.
I never bothered with the mk2 version as in the meantime spares brought out there diff, which was obviously a much better design.
