6.5" To 7" Diff Swap

Well that's way easier than expected so far - sourced a new (well, recon) LH shaft for £79 and it's straight in, no issues. The RH one is on order and will be another week, but I'm guessing all is looking well.

Ok, took a while for the other driveshaft to come in, but it arrived this week. Just to close the topic off, there was nothing complicated about the changeover - 7" diff goes straight in, then I just sourced the later drum-braked spec shafts with the large inboard stubs, and they've gone straight in.

 

Diff - £44 off ebay

Shafts £80 and £95 non-exchange (£20 surcharge for not giving them any shafts back)

Seals £10

 

Makes the car a little more sprightly - have to make the most of the 118bhp I've got
