Looking for a set of 2.5 gears to suit a borg warner diff out of a zh fairlane, have tried a multitude of places to no avail, anyone with a set that they are willing to part with or any info on were to get a set would be greatly appreciated
Thanks Jason

The axle assemblies were made by Borg Warner. Have you tried them? I don't know what ratios are/were available but that's where I'd be starting.

any good?

Blackout Steve has a used 2.47 set for a 9" for sale here if you wanted to change the diff.

I'm pretty sure these centers were the same for Falcon Fairlane, Cortina and Centura??.. possibly others too??

Checked under a Commodore lately? The live rear commodes appear to have the same axle assembly. VN onwards all disc rear brakes. I have one here (3.08) limited slip with saddles to fit ute/van/tonner.

Must be common in Vic. I have a set as well. Came out in XE'S with a 200Ci engine. Poverty pack cars. I am having a 28 spline spool moded to fit the tall carrier then you can use E series axles. If you need one let me know. Regards TPVM.
