diff housing swap

I noticed that the Michelles sacs troopy has 80 series diffs for increased track width and stronger CV's

aside from the spring perches how hard is this conversion? and how much do you gain?

which model diffs are the best to get or avoid, and are 60series as good?

Are there any other benefits?

what sort of money should i pay for a set of housings and any idea if anyone would be interested in 75series housings?

cheers all

Gday
Id be looking at putting coils underneath if you go 80 housings.....heard 80 chassis's can be retrod under a 75...but then you have to ask...whats an 80 worth these days....compared to your 75

You could leave the 70 chassis there...something to weld to :@)
