Default Trike differential identification

1999 Electra Glide trike. Can anyone tell me who makes this differential? The carrier bearing went out and the bearing spun on the end cap of the differential.

it is a Lehman kit. I contacted them and they massaged back. “All of the trike parts are automotive and I believe they were a small ford .
You should be able to have a good parts house match then. Good Luck”
So I sent the pictures to them to ask who made the differential. That said the think it was Harley Davidson.

Well , Lehmann was selling kits long before H-D started producing trikes.
I looked at the parts pic for a 2015 Freewheeler, not remotely clos

yeah, I figured they were just trying to blow me off to keep from taking the time to look up old parts. I may have to just pull the plate off the diff and have a machine shop make one I’m sure that will be pricey.
