G&J Diffs in Dandenong. Pretty happy with their service. It's a mechanical LSD. Check it out if you like Jas: http://harrop.com/root_folder/drivel..._truetrac.html (http://harrop.com/root_folder/driveline_components/detroit_truetrac.html)

He works from his backyard, although I havent seen the shed, apparently its more full on and spotless than most workshops. Doesnt matter where the work shop is though hey, matters on the quality of the work leaving the building. Ill check it out Tim, sounds good though.

I'm hoping to take the toughest RB30E crown in the world. Pretty much just need a pod and some extractors now. Doing it FOR THE PEOPLE. Still need to pick up some odd bolts here and there as I've lost some in the 18 months it's been without a motor. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Cheers Bogz. Panhard was off eBay, like $88 or something. Apparently it was new , but it had a few marks and what not when it was delivered. Yes Trev, you can have your diff back. What's left.....fair bit before I can get a RWC. Needs the handbrake assembled, front/rear calipers/discs/hoses, bleed clutch/brakes/cooling, finish interior, I really cbf listing what it needs. Heaps. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
