Is an 8 1/4", 2.45:1 diff housing exclusive?

Hope you didn't take my highlighting carrier and housing as busting your chops. It wasn't pointed at anyone, I was just trying to make sure what I was saying was clear. Saw plenty of posts in the other thread where it seemed like people read through it and then commented and seemed like they got lost on which was which.

I could have use the term case as well for the carrier, just seemed like "carrier" was a little more clear and I was working hard to make sure I was as clear as I could be.

After the first half dozen pages of detailed conversation, and trying to visualize all the moving parts down to the nitty - gritty for the first time, it did become apparent that people had different terms for the same part. And being a newb to differentials, I got to guess what part they were talking about. It looks sorted out though and I'll patiently wait to see if an open 3.23 carrier set comes up from someone converting to a SG 3.55 or something. In the mean time, there is plenty other items to work on! :rolleyes:
