I currently own a G50/03 with LSD in unknown condition, and have just been presented an opportunity to acquire a G50/52 with 38K miles for around $5K USD. Both boxes are '91 models.
Whichever box I settle on will be going to CMS for addition of a side shifter, other mods & probably an overhaul or at least a freshening up.
Is the G50/52 definitely the stronger and more desirable box to start with and would it be worthwhile springing for it at this price point, or once the box has been through Bobby's shop, there's really little difference between them? (I've been trying to contact Bobby for a few days, but haven't heard from him as yet)
The 50/52 does have longer gear ratios than the 50/03, which might be another advantage.
TIA,
John
