Looking to fit a WB statesman diff,2.6:1 and Disc Brake to a HZ V8 sedan. Just wondering if it goes straight in. The HZ in question has rear disc so are all brake lines/hoses the same? Is the sedan drive shaft OK to use. Also can the sway bar of the sedan bolt straight up to a WB diff of vice versa. Hoping changing the diff to the wb 2.6 will make for nice and tidy fit.

Cheers,
Ado

HZ and WB disc brake diffs are identical. V8 sedan tailshaft will fit. Make sure grab the speedo driven gear too off the WB assuming your HZ has the same gearbox. Both diffs should have sway bar mounts on them.

Hi Ado.

Everything should fit, the only differences AFAIK are the threads on the brake fittings.

All the pipe fittings on the WB are metric, whereas the HZ ones are all imperial (inches).

Just use everything except the brakes.
