rs2000 diff 3.54

daft question does a rs2000 diff have t28 stamped on the casing?

It's not a daft question, but the "T28" is just a casting number for the diff carrier, same as Crossflow blocks  have a "T" number on them, the bigger the number the younger it is up to the end of the run of castings produced.

 

My owned from new MK2 1600 Ghia has "T20" cast into the engine block and "T34" cast into the diff carrier, I have 2 axle's  in the garage loft that are from a 1600 Ghia and from a 1300 Sport, both have "T28" in the carrier but one is 3.54/1 the other is 3.89/1, both came from 1979 "T" reg cars, the same diff carrier is used on MK1&2 Cortina,MK1&2 Escort, Capri MK1 and MK2 & MK3  Capri 1300's, the MK3 1300 Capri rear axle should have the biggest "T" number, as it was produced after the Escort MK2 had stopped.
