Holden Salisbury differential

Automobile axle

The Holden Salisbury Differential is an automobile axle manufactured by Holden at its Melbourne plant, alongside the weaker Holden Banjo Differential, introduced in 1948, installed in Holden's debut model, the Holden 48-215, all the way through until production of the VL Commodore ceased in 1988. The Salisbury assembly is similar to that or your average passenger car, the Banjo on the other hand shared an assembly similar to that of the Ford 9-inch axle.[1]

The Differential was named after the Adelaide suburb of Salisbury, South Australia.
