I bought a nice rust free diff and this j&j irs came with it. I’m wondering if anyone has seen one sold lately and what it was priced at. Found an old motortrend article.

From article: “high-grade 356-T6 cast aluminum hub carriers.”

original price for Corvette version was approximately $800.

Apparently they didn’t sell too many. I’ll clean it up and try sell it locally for $450. The diff is 10/63 so won’t keep it either.


This was the only other info I was able to find.

This doesnt appear to be the corvette version based on what you shared but I could be wrong. Pretty cool though.

Interesting setup from a long time ago. If the center is a 63 and stock it wouldn't matter because it will still fail. It would be interesting to see if any custom work was done to the diff, that might make a difference- but 63-4 gears and posi's were bad. That would also be a narrow case, requiring now obsolete shims. If you are selling the center I buy cores for $250.
