Re: Datsunbeginner becomes an expert - Vanilla ute build

Next was to wire wheel and prep the diff for painting. It was already once painted black. This was done before I realized that paint stripper does a much quicker job than the wire wheel. If I had to do this again I would first paint strip then wire wheel rather than attacking the whole thing with the wire wheel first.

If anyone can help identify this diff, that would be great. I noticed that the flange is different than the diff flange on my orange ute which is circular. This one is rectangular with rounded corners. Also found out later in the build that the matching tailshaft is about 1 inch too long for the 5 speed 60a gearbox. I have a feeling that the diff and tailshaft came from a sedan or coupe?
