Everything was going great: they got the Quaife, appropriate speedo gear, carrier bearings......but the diff doesn't fit properly in the case!? I have read that it may need some machining to get it to work.... Can someone please tell me exactly what i should tell Ford to do to make this work.... Thanks guys! I always appreciate your help!

If it doesn't it needs to be machined. -neal 99 SVT...modified 96 GL....the beater "I live my life a quarter mile at a time.
