is this due to quaife flanges paul, cos of the viscous diff, use a sierra 4x4 diff and no quaife flanges required

please do mate if you don't mind

Basically I want to see if the width is increased on a 7'5 diff with the same out put flanges. If it not then we can fit Granada LSD diffs with a 2wd beam and not change the driveshafts

sorry if its a stupid question but why would you want to that paul? what would you gain in fitting a 2wd beam and Granny diff over your standard Beam and diff?
