The scorpio diff could well be the same as the Xtreme one. There are two
main sizes of diff fitted to fords, 7 inch and 7.5 inch.

Xtremes take the 7 inch as standard. The size is the measurement across the
top mount.

The bolt on shafts can only be used if you have the disk brake rear
uprights, as these are different from the drum brake uprights.

Generally, you can have either:
Disk brakes, lobro jointed (bolt on) shafts and a bolt on diff.
  or
Drum brakes, tripode jointed (push in) shafts and a push in diff.

There is a good diff resource on the locostbuilders site, scorpios are
mentioned here.

Having done a bit of work last winter to fit a LSD with bolt on shafts to a
car with drum brakes, I can say that the route I took is probably not the
easiest...
