I have a Quaife ATB (Automatic Torque Biasing) differential in my Morgan, which works in a similar way to a Torsen diff. I am very pleased with it.

Thanks!
Do you do the work by your selves? Which product do you order from Quaife?

I had the rear axle rebuilt by Bill Bellinger at JB Sports Engineering, he fitted the ATB diff when he did the rebuild. I don't know the exact unit he used, but my axles is a Salisbury 7HA, so it's probably the same as the one Quaife list for the Austin Healey would be my guess.

And yes, I'm very satisfied, it's much much better than an open diff at getting drive out of corners.

Hi, I had a 4.1 diff fitted earlier this year and a torsen type diff was fitted at the same time. My car is a 2013 4/4. The car now has a more planted feel and is especially noticeable accelerating out of corners. Very pleased with it.
