    Default Crwon S80/S100 diff conversions

    Howdy
    I have a Crown diff that came from a '70's Crown (S80/S100?).I don't have the rest of the car so can't look up id number etc. I assumed it would be a holden diff but it looks different to what I recall a holden banjo to be. It has ten bolts holding the centre in and is something in the 4.1:1 range. At 57" wide it is about perfect for use in an old Ford hot rod chassis I'm building but I'd be looking at a more user friendly highway ratio. Any ideas about interchangability of Toyo diff centres?? I don't speak Toyota model jargon so please go easy on me! Your help is appreciated.
    Cheers

    If it has disk brakes, it is most likely an MS112 diff, if not then MS85. The width you gave seems to be spot on anyways. If so, then it is a 7.5" and lsds are plentiful.

    only MS112's 82-84 ish had disc brake rears. All crowns before that had drum rears.

    If there is a rear plate than its a borgy, but if the centre comes out the front it will be a Toyota Diff, F series 7.5 inch

    factory toyota ratios for the F series 7.5" are 3.5, 3.7,3.9 and 4.1 abnd as old school jap one said LSD centres are easily got.

    Thanks guys. Yes it's a banjo type housing and so not a BW diff and it's got drum brakes. Now what has an F series diff at about 3.5:1 - (in non Toyota secret code), and are all the axle splines the same?
    Cheers

    yeah any F series centre will go into any F series housing, bearings may have to be changed, all splines are the same

    3.58's came out in Manual RA65 Celicas.

    if you can find yourself an RA65 celica, which is a19805/6ish model celica ,with IRS, that should have a 3.5:1 ratio diff
    beer me!
