They are used a lot and did not cause any issues on my quaife diff. I also used the extra bracing hangars from burtons that boot to the block and gearbox for support.

These ones from Graham Goode https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160985727977

their diff plates look to be 75% of the cost of burtons too

(I use already these brackets). I see other plates have big holes,that's why I ask.. If you have experience with this plate and you didn't have problem i believe it's ok to use.
