Thanks Worzel for your coments!! As I said t Craig, the van is a 100 ks from here, so I am relying on whatever the Mechanic says!! If it was here; I'd be doing the job myself.
Here; I'd be doing a transplant--   We just need t get it back home for as cheap as possible!!
Will have serious talks with every Beddie owner at the Nats----------------if we get there?
Cheers Brian

hey Worzel. I had an original beddie 'heavy duty' diff under the camper but unfortunatelty turfed it, it came with a larger diff housing and had 10" drums instead of the norm 8" drums on single wheel axles. I think I got that right coz it was about 4 years ago when I lifted it out and remember it being much heavier and bulkier then the standard size beddie diff, all the mounting brackets and such were original factory made, it was high speed from memory and I swapped it for a 9" then put it under the donor van and then sold the lot to somewhere in the Dandenongs

At last some "good news", A very old gentleman here in Pirie has his own CF camper van and a wrecked Beddie in his backyard. He has given me a complete diff; so worst case cenario is t tro it in and hope it takes us t Beddie Heaven-----ie The Nats!!!

Cheers Brian--------- is that a smile I see there??

P.S.   Thanks for all the help and advice!!!!!

well there ya go. Learning all the time
sounds like you'd be unlucky to have one cause parts would be a sh1t

just pulled apart my borg warner diff
and was well surprised?!

it has redrilled splines that fit hq stud pattern...with beddy wheel bearings ..n lockheed wheel cylinders n pads

nothing is ever standard on a beddy

Hey Peoples< The Saga continues!!!!  Got my new (second/diff) home t/day (walked it home on a sacktruck)  Here we go again, the one in the van is a 21 spline and of course the one I got t/day is a 25 spline------ Major learning curve happening here!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong!  G diff  8/37 ratio    should be 25 spline axle???
                                    F diff  7/37 ratio     should be 21 spline axle??

So what I'm gonna do is thro the complete diff   Rust and all, under the old girl (not Carole) t get her home!!!

If anyone has a 21 spline axle for sale, I could be interested, unless I go the Holden salisbury diff way!!

I am confused but "learning"
