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

jb

i would change that list to this

1. Ford 9"
2. Lee's diff (subject to his testing)
3. Jag (not necesarily like Rods though)
4. 8.8

i was using Jag units in my sierra nearly 10 years ago, and had mine on std shafts with no failures.
even better than the jag for ease of fitment is Lee's diff if it works ok and well, i'll leave it to him to comment on it.
