What width is your diff, flange to flange?

Being a crown chassis it will run same stud pattern as Ford.
That means Toyota, Ford, Valiant stud pattern (so all these will bolt in fit your wheels)
A common swap for Valiant guys is to use a late model (EF, 3.23:1 LSD from memory) falcon diff, they are a few MM's wider than a standard Valiant diff, but you get disc brakes.
Or if you need shorter diff the Centura has correct stud pattern and is a common swap into earlier Valiants wanting the late model stud pattern.

I have a couple of Valiant 2.92:1 diffs sitting in the grass out beside my shed.
