I have just aquired a rover SD1 axle - whilst trying to get hold of a flywheel! I was just wondering if the parts from the SD1 diff could be built into the triumph diff casing? I havent really studied them in any depth yet!
Thanks

Re: alternative alxes
My Triumph V8 has the internals from a Holden diff fitted into the original Triumph casing, so I'd say there's a good chance that it could be done. The casing was modified though and I don't know how, as I bought the car with it already done. I don't know for sure or anything, but I'd say there's a possibility that the Holden diff internals are similar to the Rover, as they're probably both made by Borg Warner or someone anyway! I'm sure someone else here would know...

Re: alternative alxes
The SD1 rear axle was designed and built by... Triumph
No idea as to if/how the SD1 bits will fit the old 2.5 final drive casing, however. Certainly, few if any of the parts numbers seem to be common...
