I paid £20 (bottle of wine actually) for my Jag diff & £400 to have it fully sorted. Loads of them on ebay just source a 3.54 diff lock. My conversion cost £1700 all in but that included a new rear beam to take the Jag Diff. 16 years later we are still not talking about brackets or strengthening 
. For big Power its the solution. The drag boys use it because of its incredible grip & strength.

the jag diffs are good ,but this was done as a bolt in conversion ,were as the jag is a lot of work to get it in the beam then £800 £1000 for custom shafts ,and if it was £1700 16 years ago would would that work out to now lol
I haven't seen many drag cars with them in as they are a independent axle .were as a live axle is best for drag racing mounted on 4 bar or ladder bar setup

They do work out more than the gripper and quaife. But the gripper and quaife still use the ford 7.5 inch cwp that is a problem if you have high torque and good grip. So the only other choice you have is the ford 9 inch diff and the supra kit all in is cheaper than that. You could also take the route rod has with the jag set up but I've no idea how easy it is to source the part and how much it works out

They are the route to take with out a doubt mate as rod has proved over and over. He has chucked over 600lb ft as his. I got my supra one cheep paid 150 for it and the bearings are fine. ive got the fitting kit And I'll get a cover nearer the time I send my beam off once my new engine is in. It dose work out fairly expensive but it should last

hi
when I first did these kits in 2013 my mate bought a diff £80 ,then bought a kit of me £495 changed oil say £30 total £605 ,bolted it in his 520 bhp steve scott engine saff ,and drives it a lot with no mechanical sympathy and hasent broken the diff or cover in over 2 yrs ,I think its just the look of the draw if you get a good or bad diff ,and a good or badly cast cover .I know the diffs have gone up now but at £200 /£250 for diff and a kit still £495 you can have one in your car for under £800 ,and out of the prob 60/70 kits sold it has only been a few that have broken the cover I think
