What I'd like to see cast up if anyone is asking, is a 4HU differential. It would be really nice to be able to buy that in aluminum and actually have it be affordable.

Click on the link in Mickmates #18 post above, then click on the running gear parts on the LHS of the page....second or third pic down...... .

Dont know what you consider affordable, but remember the guys who build patterns etc can have lots of hours in that alone, hard to amortise that sort of work out fairly on limited number runs, I have made my own patterns for my 9" IRS & now a T44 replica , would hate to get honest on the hours these have consumed, but I enjoy the challenge.
