Hi all has anyone done this on a MK indy ?
IF so what is involved please
Dose the prop shaft need altering in length and will the original 7" drive shafts be ok in length
Thanks for any hell you can give me

It would be a lot easier to fix the diff that is in there wouldn't it?

Or get another 7 incher?

If you're thinking of doing this because your 7-inch is tired, I've got a 3.62:1 7-inch open diff in good condition that I'm sure we could agree a price on?

Not actively looking to sell. It's sitting in my garage at the moment doing nothing after I replaced it with an LSD. Just thought I'd offer it.

If Jacko doesnt go for that 3.62 diff I might be interested if the price is right. Has to be the push in shaft type and needs to be free of whine and backlash. (Thats the reason i'm replacing mine)

Bolt-on type driveshafts I'm afraid. Sorry. Diff is in good condition mechanical and cosmetic condition though if anyone else is interested?
