i think the series III bluebird had a h190 didnt it?
The series 1 & 2 Bluebird wagon [& only the wagons] that came with the 4 speed trans had the H190 diff. Wagons with 5 speeds or Auto's, along with all othes in these models used the H165B diff.
I have no info on what series 3 cars used, but i suspect that it was basicly the same.
The ute used the H165 diff, & the ute housing can be used in the coupe. The 3.9 to 1 & the 3.7 to 1 H165 diff can be used & it looks like the Bluebird disc brakes will fit right on also.
The H190 diff will NOT fit this axle housing
If you use the Bluebird rear disc brakes, you will need to incorporate the original Bluebird flexible brake hose to each caliper into your hydraulic system. The caliper is designed to move & if you use a metal line to it, you are subjecting it to fatigue failure, & such an arangement is both illegal & unsafe. Just replicate the original setup & everything will be fine.
