    65-66 Mustang Diff into 1967 Dart

    Hi, I searched this here but couldn't find anything. Now being in Australia makes it virtually impossible to find a mopar diff of any strength. I've contacted Dr. Diff and it will cost $2k to assemble a 8.75" lsd then I have to ship it over. It will be easier and cheaper for me to source...
