i done the conversions myself, but didnt do the hard machine work like the axles and sleves for the front brakes.

i bought the complete vn commodore diff then took it to a diff place and said to shorten the axles to the same length as a gemini ones. i used commodore axle bearings, and seals (bolt straight in) then done the complete rear disk conversion (bolts straight on, article on genes page also) then had to get the diff centre made to suit 28 spline axles
