try the q&a forum at www.fordcaprilaser.co.uk

I was a member there when I had capri's the members there could find pretty much anything! One particular guy would be called Glyn-3.0-Xpack, he used to strip 2.8 specials if i remember rightly.

The diff on its own would probably be £420, what value is there in an empty case?





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

yeah, true enough. but a full working axle would presumably be worth more than fiver?

£425 is still well short of a new quaife ATB (which is what i nearly ended up doing...)

ooh, limited-slip.com, thats a nice price which brings another question, quaife or tran-x? i thought the ATB would be better than a plate type diff? less adjustment needed, no new clutches/rebuilds etc?
