Salsbury are still available from JK Jackson in Florida or Jon Wood in
England. 
I prefer Salsbury because the Quaiffe slips too much under racing
conditions.
I have also experienced overheating that caused the worm gear tolerances
to close up and increase driveline drag.
It may work fine for a street car though.

        Jeff:

        I am far from an expert, so take it with a grain of salt.

        The Phantom grip is just this side of a scam. Aimed mainly
at the rice rocket crowd, it is under engineered and designed to
be sold to people who don't know any better. It appears to be such
that even if it did work, it would not last long.
        There may be others, but Quaife is the only ticket in town 
right now that I know of.

While I have my differential apart for rebuilding I thought it wise to 
consider installing a limited slip assembly. The two I have heard of are
the

Quaife, and the Phantom Grip. The reputation of the Quaife speaks for
itself. 
Has anyone had any experience with the Phantom Grip? Any thoughts,
comments,

or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
