I replaced my leaky, whiny differential with a Infinity Q45 R200 unit. This turned into a full blown shipwrights disease attack, including but not limited to Good Parts C/V joint rear axles, Keenserts to reinforce the hub mounting studs. Those are holding in Good Parts rear hubs. Finding I still had some money left in went Nylatron trailing arm bushings and the cherry on top was a shortened driveshaft with larger u-joints with the grease fittings in the cup instead oh the center of the thing.
Post script..
My old differential continues to bleed out in the corner of my garage until I get rid of it.
I was hoping to meet more club members at the Mid-Ohio Kas Kastner race this summer but it looks like I may be able to sneak in a new carpet kit with the way things are going!
