agree with revvy, but seeing as you will be gorring all the welding work done on the dif u may as well put a T , F or G series diff in just for shits and giggles, RCA arent a must but def worth while, ana watts linkage is pretty extreme ($&#$% sweet)maybe just a panhard?? bearing in mind i dont no the rear layout of a p60 that well

Getting KP's real low is tricky, cause of the way their trailing arms angle in toward the diff, makes them bind up.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

hmm, never had any binding issues. you have to release the 4 link bolts and do them back up ride height though (stock bushes). else you're basically trying to rip the center out of the bush. which is probably mistaken for binding.

you'l have to chop the bump stops down alot in the rear whatever you do.
