    No.

    Not unless you cut off all mounts on both diffs and use the leaf fish plates on the T18 one.

    Its do-able yes, quite easy in fact. But to answer your question, it will not bolt up without lots of mods.

    You can modify most things to suit leafs.

    I was using a T series (same as a T18 diff) modifyed to suit leafs.

    Theres not going to be anything that bolts in except for a S series diff out of a KE/AE panno. But they will be hard to find, and not really much better.

    What engine/gear box does your car have? Because your borg warner diff will take some abuse.

    You realise a LSD for a T series will cost you a substantial amount of money? As in $1000 - $2000.

    For the price of welding rods and stock KE diff centers, I would be welding it up.

    you could get an s-series out of a panelvan and that should bolt up, so long as you have the tail shaft to go with it. then you could weld it

    but then i suppose there is nothing stopping you welding what is in there

    And hijack!!!

    Ok so i was going to start another thread but i figured this is close enough to what i want to know.

    I need to know whether a series two t18 diff bolts straight into an ae71.
    I've put a T series into an ae86 before with no worries but i want to make sure about this before i pull the diff out of my car.
    i'm running vl excel g's in the back, same as i was in the sprinter, and some ae86 king springs so that should be fine. I'm mostly just worried that the trailing arms or panhard won't fit!

    Oh and while i'm heading off topic i guess i'll ask my other question which is.....
    Will i have any problems putting a 22mm whiteline adjustable swaybar for an ae86 into the front of my ae71?? I already found that i had the wrong bushes for the rear so just want to make sure of the front.
    Cheers
