Default 1/4 scale rear axels and diff's?

Is there anyone making 1/4 scale rear ends with the quick change diffs like New ERA use to? I wish someone would make a 1/4 scale stadium truck like the one New Era use to make. Thanks.

I'm planning on using a way-overkill diff off a lawnmower... that way it shouldn't ever break, and won't need to be quick-change.

Try Gary at conley. He has one in the works as well as a ford 9" replica. Wxpect to pay $600+ . Even at that its a bargain since skeelengers cost more!!

The correct spelling is Skellenger and No they are out of business making rear ends. I don't have a web site. I am just a machinist who tries to supply people with parts. No one can make a exact copy of the original skellenger rear ends anymore to expensive.
