Thanks! Making the hole bigger makes sense. I'd rather cut a bit out that put wood in it ( weight reduction haha)

Do you mean you got the tailshaft shortened? Or it fit?

Well my van does have a fair bit of rust... So that sounds about right. What are the fiber glass ones worth? Sounds like a cool upgrade. I'd rather not weld up the back doors at the moment I've only had her for a couple of months :)

Driveline / Which tailshaft to use with Holden diff conv?
« on: January 09, 2012, 08:30:55 AM »
I've found a bloke whose wrecking a beddie with a 3.08 sals that's been modified (just mounts) to fit beddie  ;D  He's giving me the off the old girl apart from the body and doors ( too rust f****d for use) for only 200 bucks! Only problem is that it has no tailshaft.
So will a kingswood/torana etc tailshaft be long enough? Or will I have to get the beddie one modified?

Is there any way I can adjust the back door so the thing will stay closed? Only the drivers side comes open when I go over big bumps/ trail tracks. I had it wired up but now it's the only door I can unlock from the outside till the central locking goes in..
Any one got any pointers?

Ok.... Little bit off topic. So I had a Bo peep at the diff. It won't be changed for a while but I'll probably end up going commodore 10 bolt.  Anyway I jacked up one side and tried to give her a spin and it wouldn't turn...... Beddie difs would be single peggers yeah? I don't really wanna pull it apart to check if it's welded. Otherwise ignorance is bliss for the moment. :)

Cheers guys! I know how to work the diff ratio out just didn't know if it was a bedford diff. I guess I'll just have to measure and see what fits. Having fat 10"s filling the back would be mad so I think I'll go Holden diff and keep the Bedford one in the shed.

The Bedford makes car number 9! Hopefully they don't become addictive like the toranas and geminis Haha. is there some way I can tell what diff it is? I couldn't find a plate with with the diff, engine, box etc. I'm keen to get her purring my mates love it and there isn't many getting round Hobart. Were they factory with the Holden front end? I'm assuming since they run the red motors. I did 110 no worries and I think the box is direct in 4th too...  What ratio are the highway diffs and are they any good?I only really want to get rid of the diff so I can have the same stud pattern. Might see if I can get a Wb disc LSD in the old girl because I haven't seen any chevy diffs for sale in tassie... Cheers!

G'day all. So last weekend I saw a Bedford for sale. So I took it off the bloke for 650 (registered till march). Bit of rust but straight as a arrow. I've got toranas so the Holden side for me is easy. What gets me is the diff. From what research I've done it's a bedford diff. And it's running a Hq/Wb front? Someone said that they rev out and I'd be getting no where fast but she sat on 100 nicely and quietly (even with the dirty huge side pipe). It's running a 202 ( head gasket is blown but it still pulls like a 12yo) and mc6 box (not factory?) anywho the point of all this is:

Are there any easy (haha) Holden stud pattern diff conversions? I've searched the forums and haven't found much. And were the 4 speeds they came out with the gmh mc6 or m20.

Cheers and sorry for the noob questions
