oh i say everybody, my head is spinning, as too all this talk bout diffs?
what i would like to know is the following>>
what came out with 9inch diffs?
what came out with 10 bolt diffs
how does someone know what ratio a diff is?,eg is it stamped on the casing? or come with a cd rom?
How would you know if a diff is ok,? without having it running in the car?
do all good diffs from v8,s have 10 bolts?
all the imfo you can tell me about diffs, in the one easy to read posting, will be muchly appreciated.
cheerio

9" is a F#rd diff. XY-XC, some early F100 plus heaps more. Holden 10-bolt is from:
V8 HQ-WB;
5litre VB-VK;
A9X;
VB 6cyl rally car.
Chev 10-bolt is from 5 litre and bigger HK-HG except some early HK GTS's and other HK 307 like Brougham, Kingswood |

If we all had the same (good) taste, who would buy all the Fords? |

What diff is in your transit van?
Why are you looking for another one?
Is it broken or are you looking for different diff ratio or dont you think it will be strong enough for a V8??
A lot of commercial vehicles came out with pretty strong diffs as st

hi sandman,
it is the original diff in the transit, problems are as follows,
drum brakes,
ratio incredibly low,
cant get good wheels for it, at all,, they have to be made!
cant get higher ratio diff for it, and cost of conversion is incredible, and |
