I thought they where the 4HA with a toque tube extension ..same as the TR8 .. when i did some work on the Janspeed Le-Manns TR8 it had a 4HA on it

Spoke to my boss today who has a ex works SD1 and is a bit of a sd1 guru, standard sd1 had rovers own design axle not very strong, they put 4HA,s in the competition ones, but not road cars, Is this about the diff on the Ebay?

IIRC the SDi axle is related to the Austin Westminister, big healey etc, which, if it is used to be favorates with the Short oval racers and Drag racers as being pretty strong, and if my linage is correct, it was also fitted to the Sherpa, Some sherpas, notably Emergency services v8 versions were fitted with Quaife LSDs to give them better "OffRoad" ability!!! BUT not all emergency vehicals were fitted with the LSD
