There are a few rigs here in the US where we have swapped a Starion rear LSD into the front of a Gen I V6 axle. I think they will also fit the later Gen IIs as they have a similar carrier and the bigger housing. (The earlier Gen IIs had the same front as the Gen I 2.6.)

There are many threads on 4x4Wire about possible options to mix-n-match for the Starion unit.
