the xr4x4 dif is the one to go for, if you want/need an LSD, otherwise a standard sierra dif will do (there are various ratios, a post under running
gear today i think should explain.
otherwise search the forum, there are lots of informative old posts/threads out there.

Bear in mind that the diffs vary in size (width), so you will have to make sure you get a diff that is correct for the chassis you ordered. I think
the majority of diffs are 7" fitment, and unless you stated you were using a particular difff (eg Cosworth) then you should be.

ok the bloke who im buying the lsd off wants to sell me the whole rear end from wheel to wheel for £150 is this a good price,it seems ok to me, every
thing seems cheap compared to motor bike bits woohoo,engine's gonna be the most expensive part after the chassis but there you go again a damn
motor bike bit

Is the LSD rearr diff the same size as the standard sierra one?
Im just thinking if it will fit straight into the indy.
