Compatible diff

Hello,
Im trying to find a suitable lsd diff or lock diff for my rare 4x4.
I have the suspicion that its a copy of toyotas 8" diff but i have no way of confirm.
I made a drawing of the important dimensions of my original diff, could anyone help me confirm some of them? (the ones circled in red)
(dimensions are in mm and inches)


THANKS SO MUCH.

Pray tell who the manufacturer of your diff carrier was.

It's a JAC T8.

Interesting.
Sorry that I don't have a Toyota diff of that type apart to measure right now.
Hope someone else pipes up.

The diameter of the axles and number of splines would be another controlling factor.
The Toyota 8 inch differential takes 30 spline axles.
Don't know their diameter offhand.

Thanks everyone for the replies!!
I also measured the splined shafts that go inside the diff.
