I wonder why they drill and tapped the holes on top of the case? Whose hole are not used to mount it in a cobra. I will have to look at my Kirkham case to see if there drilled and tapped.

I just installed an Auburn traction lock carrier & 3.54 gears in a Jaguar Salisbury 4HU differential and it was pretty straight forward, though not quite as easy as a Ford 8"/9". The only issue that I ran into was that the new carrier has a larger body than the original open one and it rubbed on the housing when shimmed to the spot that it needed to be in. Once I realized that, 30 seconds of grinding on the housing solved that.
