The eye bushes on the ends of the sway bar fit inside the chassis rails.

Tried the UK sway bar,it could work with some trimming of the tubes for the torque rods.
Just make some brackets,more factory jobs ( from Ford ).

Is that the LSD from the Aussie Sigma? I can see the "pumpkin" is different (no hole), but are the bearings and driveshaft splines the same?

A lot more teeth on the left cw? I counted 35 vs 27 (plus the ones you can't see). iirc the 262 had 3.70:1 (37:10), and the 1750 had 3.89 (35:9), and the Sigma had those and a 3.42 (from here). Did the tow pack Sigma wagon get the 4.11 ratio from the Pintara?

The splines are identical,bearings the same.The car that this diff came out of was a wagon, high roof, that had a towbar.
It had a 3.42 ratio.
I have not seen a 4.11 in a sigma & most people change the 3.23 out of the pintaras for 3.7 or 3.89
