Hey Guys

Anyone know what the differences are between the front and rear diff in the jimny? will the rear lock-right fit the front diff? :unsure:

Cheers

Rear diff is a 4 pin type front is 2 pin.

The pinion is central on the rear diff, and low down at the front.

I don't know if the lock-right (I suspect it is actually a loc-rite :) ) will fit I'm afraid. The differential gears might be the same fromt & back I don't know. :(

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

loc-rite is right ;)

Yes, that's what i thought, as well I think the spline count is different but no harm in asking anyway ...

Its LockRight :) - www.bigjimny.com/store/index.php/off-roa...ff-locker/p_133.html

I have researched into the front ones with the guys in the states and there is not a solution at present apart from an expensive ARB (or a chinese or german copy).
