Lee is testing out a new diff in his car. if he wants to tell you what it is then im sure he will.
I know what diff Lee's got in his now & am VERY interested, it didn't give up at pod either & for the amount his was trampin is impressive !
So the standard 8.8" diff out the explorer, does that come with a slipper ?
How I see it, I've got realisticly 4 options.......
1. Ford 9"
2. Jag (like Rods)
3. 8.8 US Ford diff
4. Lee's diff (Tib)
Hmmm, I'm thinkin Lee's would prob be cheapest route, and as it's already been done, the measurements, fabrication work has already all been worked out !
Who actually fitted Lee's diff ? Where is he when you need him ? lol
