Has anyone actually compared these two side by side? I'm interested to know if the diffs might be interchangeable. Probably not directly, but with some machine work and definitely gear changes. I know the overall width is the same, since some guys have swapped from the 282 to F23 and used the same axles with no issues. Anyone got anymore info?
.
Someone have a HM282/T550 diff? I could compare them.
I too would like to know this.
I could take some measurements ~ I'm pretty sure that I have a spare 282 diffy kicking around...
I have some leads on a limited slip for the 282, but it's looking to be brutally expensive - and this has me thinking of swapping in an F23 c/w Quaife LSD ~ but if I could just buy the Quaife and swap that in, I'd be able to avoid any required fabrication work...
signatures are for loosers.
Hmmm... I'm really surprised no one has this info offhand.

My thoughts exactly. The LSD options for the 282 are few and far between (and too expensive for what they are).
jmarks- do you have an F23 diff out? I have 3 or 4 282 diffs I can could measure up and we could compare.

I have a few F23 diffs (and isuzu, 4t40e F35.....) out in the garage..... If I remember correctly, the 282/550 diff's were considerably different..... maybe if I get a chance, I can check my tote and see if there is a 282/550 diff in there.

I posted up specs for the F23 diff on the Q4/LD9 FB page. Brad, copy and paste the measurements here for everyone (I would but I can't with the iPhone).

So all we need is the 282 specs.....
If only the Army would let me go on leave.....
