Exclamation Jag Diff rebuilders

Purely out of interest, how do you folks go about getting a Jag diff/rear end rebuilt? Are there many places you can go to for this?

Here in the UK it is no problem to get a "rebuilt" Jag rear end, but in actual fact they don't touch the core. There are very few folks (maybe only 1 or 2) who can actually properly rebuild/shim the innards of the diff. Lots of folks who can do the wishbones/ halfshafts/hub carriers etc. They just replace pinion bearings/seals, output shaft bearings/seals in the diff itself and thats about it. Even I can do output shaft bearings and seals - its no real big deal.
To be specific - who in the USA can replace pinions/crownwheels/spiders etc and set them up properly?

So - how is it for you guys in the US?

Oh - and how many use this diff set up as opposed to a Ford 8.8 or 9"?

Just interested to learn more about the US scene.
