Whoops, I didn't mean you have to put ute springs in with a ute diff. I meant people put ute spings in wagons for some reason, something about being better if lowering...I think. Cheers RD

Not 100% sure about it though. I have lowering blocks in my ute. Only cost 50 dollars from autopro  Sounds like the go getting them from Autopro, there's one just up the road from me.

You can use an XG/XH rear axle - swap over the wagon springs, brackets/U bolts, etc.
It would be an issue if it were to go into an EF/EL wagon due to the different handbrake setups.

The EA-ED use the same handbrake setup. The EF/EL use the later setup. BenJ
