Actually its interesting, a lot of people are running the bk2 steering bell crank setup and the bk2 rear end on their CR's, both of those swap onto the PSI and all u need to do is file a little material of the chassis where the rear arms connect to the pivot because its a narrower pivot than the cr rear end, all u need to do is build a CR gearbox and ur set, so dont get put off, alot of what u have in the bk2 gearbox will work too such as the diff rings, diff balls, bearings, i'd imagine u'd only need the gearbox casing, top shaft, idler, outdrives and the CR diff gear to build a gearbox that will fit in, u can pick whether to go for a full CR diff, which would mean u'd need the cr diff rings and diff screw/nut, or if u get the original xxx out drives, they will work with all the diff hardware u already have and will mate up with the CR diff gear...do it

edit, the thing i have not thought about is the front end, im not sure if the front pivot is the same in the cr as the bk2, just checked, they use the same pivot for the front arms, so the bk2 front end would work too, u just wouldnt have the vla, which u dont have now anyway
