We can do either, the 9" LSD, Strange 3.9 gears, steel hemisphere, new bearings, clutch pack, narrowed to size, 31-35 spline hy-tuff axles, long studs, bearings, set up for what ever brakes you want, would cost $2930.00.
The Hi Lux diff in LSD standard 3.9 gears, bearings, narrowed to size, standard 30 spline axles, long studs, bearings, any bolt pattern, would cost $1900. The single ladder bar control arm kit is $450. To instal all original and ladder bar bracketry onto housing $300.

Wasn't the ratio 4 the VL turbs 3.45:1 ?? Where did you come up with 3.05:1, or was that a typo for rounding it off to 3.50:1 ??
