Hi

What ratio are you after? Also with push in shafts there were two sizes but the smaller size only appeared briefly in the earliest Sierras. I don't have the measurements to hand but I'm sure someone will post them.

I have a push in shaft Diff, complete with shafts. 3.9 ratio
I have the bearing carriers as well. The drums and back plates are not that good. However, for about £15 (for the coversion plates) you could convert to discs, which IMHO would be worth it!

Geoff i will keep you in mind cambridge is a bit of a drive. if nobody closer has anything then i will be in touch.

as for the ratio. the diff i had come off a 1.6 g plate pinto sierra. but to be honest any ratio is better than no diff. (is it gonna make a big difference on a 1.6?)
