Pick'nPayless at Blacktown have a 3.54 but they want $350 for it drum to drum. You might be able to talk 'em down a bit, but I couldn't

as for the magnet not working, it has and does work not all the time but defferntly worth a shot, you have to get creative when you have minispool and you cant get a punch in or anything to "bash" the broken piece of axle out

if its just broken the spider gears pull the 2 spiders out that DONT have the splines for the axles in them and weld the other to back up, provided the crownwheel and pinion are fine just weld it back up the centre is usless for anything else.

I have a spare std centre spool(planet gears/carrier)in good nick, pulled it out to fit Quaife LSD

OK sounds sad ---you can get a 4 planet geared diff head and you can change just the Carrier if your ratio is hard to find ------they a lot stronger than then the standard one-- the planet gears they can be replaced ( you know that) there are a number of fords that use the same size planet gears--- i think zephyr's and transit vans & Mark 2/3/4/5/ FORD CORTINA's but its been a while ---------
when setting the crown wheel and Pinyin gap use some ( led wool) led wire or led sheet --- say 1/8 inch wide and 1mm thick led has the advantage of loading the mess -- - and wound it in the crown wheel and Pinyin mess and use a micrometer ---say have 2 Tho gap ---watch out for the mess on the
2 Axel's bearing on the Carrier they can have to much mess or not enough ---when adjusting the crown wheel mess ---
bearing blue should be used on the crown wheel as well ---
I welded a bolt in the diff housing and bolted a gear box magnet in the floor of the diff housing IT works

hope that helps

Ok, sorry for the late reply. I've just moved house and haven't got the internet on yet [:(!]. I ended up picking up a 3.9 for $150. I think im going to have to invest in a LSD. I keep sayin it and sayin it but it's going to cost me more n more money the longer i wait.

Im locking the one i broke so i have a back up next time somthing like this happens [:x)]
