After twisting the 28 spline 9" axles in my Chevy l had a 31 spline diff with floating hubs made up locally. Brakes are XB discs and calipers (l think) using standard Chevy hand brake cable. The cost about four years ago was $1,400 with me supplying the housing and brakes.
Work was done Mat at Langwarrin, PM me if you want his details.
