mick, i was going to weld flynns rear to match the front, but shimmed it out instead. ive got a spare centre for parts if you want to shim it out. call me or flynn. we can sort something out. but it will require pulling the R&P gears out which is easy.

thanx for the tips 3.9 is stamped on cr4own wheel so im guessing thats the ratio. :x
the lsd if pretty tight at the monet i had tyres on it and couldnt get it to slip bye hand not much force but. if i lift a wheel it will not work like a locker tho will it.

Shim it up real tight buddy. My front one is shimmed and is almost a spool. Nissan LSDs are very good.

weld the front. it wont effect the zook at all if you get a better pump then you have now. and get a GQ box (the smaller one) and you will never remember it is even locked in.

big mick, itll root the brakes or the skims real quick.

yellow runner, prolly can by them but better is to find someone with a spare diff centre or go to your local 4x4 shop and ask if they have some lying around. or machine up something to fit.....whatever
