Yep, the e-locker will not fit in a SF axle assembly--unless you converted it into a FF (some people have done it on 40s and 55s that I have seen around the web). For 40s/55s/60s the fronts are all FF and require no alterations to their housings to get a 80 series rear e-locker dif into them. The rears need to be FF or need to be converted to FF.
Anyway, I bought both of my e-lockers used from junk yards (no, not Junk's yard ) one from Texas somewheres for $375 shipped to my door and the other I found in a junk yard about 2 hours from me so I drove down and picked it up for $425. I think I got pretty good deals on them. Not sure what an 80 series FF would go for, but searching on www.car-part.com shows that they seem to be pretty pricey... I am getting a 60 series FF for $400-$450 including shipping from Oz...
