I picked up a vl turbo diff less brakes and backing plate, originally disc brake diff (dude kept the brakes for his 9")
I believe i can run all VN gear but have rear a few conflicting opinions.
What i can gather;
VN calipers are the same and will fit
VN backing plate bolts on
VN rotors will fit
VL disc brake hand brake cable
Can i get a definitive answer?

Yes, all correct. The differences are:
-VN axle retaining plate (it is upside compared the VL unit)
-VN handbrake cable (slightly shorter, from memory)
You can convert a VL diff to disc brake using all VN gear.

Yeah, the VN backing plates hand brake cable mounting point is at 180 degrees flipped compared to a VL one.
Which leads me to my next question... will vl disc brake hand brake cable be compatible with VN backing plate?
thanks man
