A few pound coins needed. I think for ease and doing it myself (given the fun Mike at Britannia restorations had) it would be an axle swap.


It's much easier to swap the diff than the axle, one hour max job.


Even with a Salisbury axle?


No not on a salisbury Rolling Eyes But Mike @Britrest has recently done a 5 or 6 part series on fitting an ATB to a salisbury.
