My understanding is that an EF/EL diff will bolt straight on to the leaf spring saddles. You will need to mod the brake lines and handbrake cable etc.

Re the diff centres, yes, they should be able to be swapped, but it is not considered a DIY job, without the specilist tools etc.

well i want to do this so the handbrake will be functional so when you say brake line modification what do you mean??

i think everyone thinks you will be retaining the EB handbrake setup. if you have the EL setup then you dont need to swap anything, just bolt it all up

its easier. unless you can plumb the EB brake lines onto an EL rear caliper and modify your handbrake cable to fit the EL setup as well.
