I was set on a 10 bolt diff but I've found a HK 9 inch fully rebuilt with disc brakes, 3.5:1 centre etc for a good price. I have a HG ute. I'm not sure if this 9 inch was built for a sedan or ute.

All HK/T/G use the ame basic leaf spring set-up, all the rear axle housing will interchange, except for the location of the flexible rear brake hose.

If I can't get the tailshaft, handbrake cables and mounting hardware it's not too big a deal? Not enough to justify passing it up?
I'm assuming as the add says it's set up for a HK it should have Hk/t/g discs. Hopefully talk to the guy today about the

Common conversion from my (very limited0 experience was to keep the ford discs & have them re-drilled or just run ford pattern on the back.
