NO as the pinion gear is a high entry to the axle to aviod the rear tie bar on the front jimny axle.
The sammy tie bar is on the front of the axle with a low pinion gear entry.
Then you have to consider bolt patterns of the crown wheel and to my knowledge this wont work.
If any one has managed it I would like to know. The other thing is the spline pattern is not the same in the actaul diff. the way round would be to fit the jimny spline gears into a sj front diff if they would fit but I have no idea if this would work. It got me thinking tho. TBH I think the front sammy diff is to big..
