Part #: 965 928 A

Overview

The Cusco Rear Differential Carrier Mounting Collar is a high-quality performance component designed specifically for Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 models from 2012 to 2021. Engineered to enhance the stability and integrity of your vehicle's rear differential assembly, this collar helps prevent unwanted movement of the differential carrier or pumpkin during spirited driving or aggressive cornering.

If you've upgraded your rear differential with performance parts such as an aftermarket LSD or are pushing your vehicle to its limits on the track or street, this mounting collar is an essential upgrade. It provides a more secure connection between the differential and the chassis, reducing play and ensuring consistent power delivery to the rear wheels. Whether you're a dedicated enthusiast or a professional tuner, installing this collar can contribute to improved rear wheel traction, handling precision, and overall vehicle stability.

Key Features

The Cusco Rear Differential Carrier Mounting Collar incorporates several advanced design elements to deliver superior performance and durability:

• Precision Machined Construction: Crafted from high-strength materials, the collar ensures a perfect fit and long-lasting performance under demanding conditions.
• Enhanced Stability: By securing the differential carrier firmly in place, it minimizes unwanted movement that can lead to inconsistent traction or handling issues.
• Improved Traction and Handling: Reducing differential play helps maintain optimal wheel contact with the road, especially during aggressive driving or cornering.
• Compatibility with Extensive Differential Modifications: Ideal for vehicles with upgraded LSDs or other rear differential enhancements, ensuring reliable operation.
• Easy Installation: Designed as a direct bolt-on component, it requires no modifications or complex procedures, making it suitable for both DIY enthusiasts and professional installers.

Construction & Design

The Cusco Differential Carrier Mounting Collar features a robust, precision-machined design that ensures a snug fit around the differential carrier. Made from durable, high-quality materials, it withstands the stresses of high-performance driving and harsh conditions. Its one-piece construction provides consistent alignment and reduces the risk of failure or loosening over time. The collar's design also helps dissipate heat generated during intense driving sessions, contributing to the longevity of your differential assembly.

Performance & Benefits

Installing this mounting collar can lead to noticeable improvements in your vehicle's handling dynamics. By securing the differential carrier more effectively, it helps maintain precise alignment of the rear suspension components, resulting in better traction and cornering stability. This is especially beneficial for vehicles with extensive rear differential modifications, where added stability can significantly enhance driving confidence and performance. While it does not directly increase horsepower or torque, it supports the overall drivetrain integrity, allowing your vehicle to perform at its best under demanding conditions.

Installation & Fitment

The Cusco Rear Differential Carrier Mounting Collar is designed for a straightforward bolt-on installation. It mounts directly onto the differential carrier, replacing or supplementing the factory components. No cutting, drilling, or complex modifications are required. Basic hand tools and mechanical knowledge are sufficient for proper installation. As always, it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions or consult a professional if unsure about the process.
