i am looking into a 'phantom grip' application for my diff, i have a TD wagon

does anyone know of cars in the US that either use the gemini diff or are likely to work, as the website is based in the US and doesnt list the gemini?

cheers

And they wont have used the Sailsbury diff in the US that was used here in 90% of Geminis

s*#t, any ideas that dont involve a mig, tig or oxy? or a complete diff swap?

I thought they were called Chevy Chevette's? or is that somewhere else

they were known as lots of different things in america, chevy's, pontiacs, opals and isuzu, but none seem to be on the list of cars that phantom provide for.
also like bob said geminis have an aussie built diff.

the product doesn't look that hard to make, maybe you could build your own, the hardest part would be finding the different size spur gears.

if they had a diff for an i-mark or one of the others then you could use a diesel diff housing
