okie dokie

rigth i have had a bit of a read on the posts so am i right in believing that if i get a 240 lsd and place that gears into the 340 and make a few adjustments it will work?

or could i just place a 240 lsd onto a 340?

Quife will sell you an ATB diff for £550 apparently. Specifically to fit a 300.

No one has done it over here, so not an easy ask. The diff needs some machining, look at the bolts on the crown wheel, as does the casing. The extent of both won't be known unless one is offered up to the other.
