stu999 Posted December 28, 2002 Share Posted December 28, 2002 First of all, welcome, and dont forget to join the WSCC.... The cossy diff will fit providing the chassis is a recent one. If the measurement betwewen the top diff mounts is 7.5 inches, it will fit. You will also probably have to trial fit the diff as the casing sometimes needs slight 'fettling' to clear. But the cossy diff is probably overkill on a Westy, and unless you are planning on some serious horsepower, you would be better off sellimg or exchanging the diff for a 4x4 one, which are well up to the job, and a fair bit lighter.
