Thanks Tom,
I am sure it's in there. Using "Search" for "Dana" might shorten the source
pages.
Personally, I recommend the Dana unit made by Salisbury (English) for the
Jaguar. It is either the English subsidiary of Dana, or makes the identical
(nearly) unit under license.
The difference is, that while all the parts are interchangeable with the US
unit, the holes in the differential ring gear carrier are slightly larger.
This allows the larger English ring gear bolt and 2.88:1 ring gear to be used.
If an American Dana is used, and one wishes to retain the stock ratio, then
the carrier holes must be enlarged slightly (machine shop job, not hand drill)
to accommodate the larger stock bolt. On the other hand, if you have the
English unit and want to use the US Ford ring gear/pinion ratios, a stepped
bolt is available to allow this as well.
