My bugeye would be much happier on the 55 mph roads with a 3.9 diff. Anyone have one for sale?
Thanks!

Dunno if you found your diff but if not I have a 3.9 I would be willing to swap for an open 4.2.

Michael,

If Peter doesn't take you up on this offer, I certainly will.

PM me if interested.

Boy, I'm of the opinion that the 3.9 diff makes every bit as much a difference as the 5th gear (overdrive) with the Datsun tranny.
I've seen them, occasionally, on Craigslist for maybe $300 (?). No current leads.
