We do not sell any diff parts to speak of at the moment it is really a specialist field, I will have a look into it and see what comes up.

If someone does get into making Banjo parts, I cannot even comprehend the popularity that Billet axles would have, especially if money can be saved by mass-producing.

yes i agree , they are a breakable item and used on other holden early models also..
the cones wouldnt be too hard to reproduce with some lath work , the spider gears would be a little more difficult ..

bango's made in China, no worrys the Aussie made ones are no good. Rorym, buy a 9", bolt it in and forget about it. Then you can start worrying about that toy gearbox. The price people want for centres, it's the second good reason why to buy a 9".

rather buy one good anchor and chain, than buy a new anchor every i'm going fishing. How much more do you a 9" weighs even a bango?

But was that just the diff centre? What about the weight of the housing, axles and brakes? Plus 1.5 litres of diff oil.

Do the historic tourer guys have to use a banjo? They would have to consume a few parts at least. I would sleep easy knowing that I could readily get spares for mine

did you know that small holden salisbury diff have the same lsd parts inside, but thay will only be fine spline. small salisbury diffs come in uc torana, wb 6cly ute or van, vb, vc and vh commodore 6cly and 253 only. some do have lsd,s but thay are rare. but you can only use the parts the hemipheres are differant from small salisbury and banjo diffs. hope this helps someone.
