    Which series model range are you talking about? V8 had Salisbury, 6cyl had banjo unless HD diff selected (which was a Salisbury).

    So in this current car the tag reads GV 4 and on a 308 it would be Salisbury

    Also if it was a 6cyl with heavy duty diff option or any 1-tonner it'd be a Salisbury.

    Same diff as Mauser says, just a bigger uni joint. Same uni joint as 350 HQ's too.
