Most Russian spec wagons use the H260 diff as well.

Gerrit, yes and no, haha,Seems to be a conflict of information. Yes, not ALL wagons and coil cab chassis models ran H233B rear ( i am duly corrected, you are absolutely right), BUT,..... there are models issued with them for sure.

Something i found: (Unfortunately i can't find this list with a date of manufacture to further illustrate.)

G60 Font C216 ?SPL
G60 rear H260 ?SPL Heavy Duty model
G60 rear C216 ?SPL SWB

MQ/MK Patrol Rear H233 31 Spline, 1.26" axle

GQ front H233B 31 SPL
GQ coil rear H233B 33 SPL

GU front H233B 31SPL
GU rear H233B 'small' 33SPL
GU H260 'large' 37 spline

What this thing needs is an extra rear axle and coil springs all round.
