Scrounge for a Jag XJ "posi" rear. They are out there. (Whenever I come across them I buy them up, even if I don't have a project, at the moment, for them).

Order up ERA's cage and ERA will shorten the half shafts and lower arms for you. Assuming that you do not have to go into the differential to repair/replace anything, everything else is readily available and "do-able" by a "shadtree" mechanic.

Take it from someone who has been dealing with ERAs for over 25 years; DON'T TRY TO REINVENT ERAs ENGINEERING. YOU WILL NEVER GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND IT WILL NOT BE (PERCEIVED AS BEING) BETTER.
