Do a search on Diff bearings as DNB was trying to source these - Griffith Forum.

As for poly bushes I'd go for Powerflex ones and Steve Heath can provide those for you . . .

Is it the GKN diff you have?

If so, the bearing you seek is no longer generally available. It was a special batch made to order for GKN. The diff was used by Maserati for the BiTurbo. Maserati were charging almost £100 per bearing, if they still have any left.

DNB had a 2mm shim made up to allow the use of this bearing.

I sent BB a Maserati workshop manual explaining how to rebuild the diff. You can now download it for the Griff pages.

He will have a BTR diff not a GKN.
