I got my diff from BS MOTORS LTD, witton, birmingham they have a ebay store http://stores.ebay.co.uk/bsvehicleparts
Although I just rang them and had it the next day 0121 328 5222

As for bearings there are a few sets on ebay, I was lucky and got a real steal but pop up time to time. There is also a guy on rovertech I believe. The 6208 bearings are the diff ones.

Assume you have the basic breather mods already. The fly doesnt add numbers but driveability is where it really counts

right im looking at the bearings... but im coming up with several diff types
there all coming out at 40x80x18mm but there are diff letters after the 6208.. im seeing ZZ, 2RS, and SKF which are open bearings.
Which one do I need to order??? Seen a set from moto build but as usual they want the earth and my dad has old contacts in that area so I might be able to get a deal... which could benefit all of us.

The suffixes seen on a bearing code relate to the shield type, RS being rubber seal, ZZ being shield. As for the right one, probably 2RS, Jay should know this from the SKF ones sent.

RS seal on one face.
2RS both faces.
Z on one face.
ZZ on both faces.
