HZ Windowless Sandman found in Wangeratta vic

[Innuendo]

Does the diff effect the vans ride ( better/worse) and the vans value once compete

So long as the sedan spring mounts are ground off clean and the commercial saddle mounts are welded on square it will make zero difference to the ride or performance.
As for value to the overall Sandman? Most will not even notice. But for those who do, it is a pointer the car is a bitsa and not a true high value original survivor.

over the years ive seen ute van diffs with the centre ears or lobes cut off i always thought these were sedan diffs cut and welded to suit the van ute but not sure if they were made that way?
