the advantage of going supra route is it will fit in a standard or 6deg beam with no mods to the beam at all. it's a straight bolt in job.

it like most things when going a unconventional route it takes some work making the brackets and adapters. but i aint paying Ł3500 for a ford 9" diff (if you can get 1) and there isn't many other options.

So what do i need to ask for regarding diff? Any certain ratio? type? model?
And what shafts? also where do i get them spacers?

Presumably need an adaptor for the prop as well?
Would be great to see it documented in detail.
How much do the supra diffs go for? I assume they are LSD?

They're quite cheap and pretty common diffs Chip, and I only looked at 2 breakers
If someone that's already made the kit up, like MK has a ready made conversion bracket for the diff to beam and the flanges for the shafts to diff, then most people will snap them up I bet.
I want one!
