Looking for manuals on rebuilding the Diff and a rebildable diff

I am looking for manuals on rebuilding Salisbury 14HU and Dana diffs. I was told that they are very similar, and that the Dana manual is much better written. Also looking to pick up a rebuildable diff for X300, X305 or X306 in the greater New England area.

PM member Brutal and see if he still has his for sale.

Brand new Powerlock 3.58. But check what model it is
meant for. If it has the jurid type plate at the front,
it will fit.

Motorcarman may have rebuildable cores around.

David at everydayxj.com is another source.

I was able to find quite a few other Dana/Spicer manuals via google searches. There is a good account of the diff rebuild by Martin Voilette in the XJ40 eBook at the Jag-Lovers.org forum. There is also a lot of helpful info at the website for West Coast Differentials. Here's a photo of the helpful literature I found, either online or in the Jaguar service manual from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust (mostly for torque specs):
