Diff carrier - Sierra to Vit

Post by Dick »

I have heard that a Sierra front carrier will fit a Vit front housing? anybody heard of what the internals swap involves ? I will be fitting the ARB locker as well.

The vitara described in this thread has had this mod performed on it.

Perhaps you will find some details in there, otherwise perhaps you could PM LJ Extreem for some further details about the swap.

Cheers.

Its the one I exploded ! I have your old one all apart and ready to roll. I was going to just set it up and do the pinion mount strap mod. Then I heard about Sierra steel carrier possibility! Did you know your old housing was cracked ? Not that it matters !

Excellent use of technical descriptive words there Dick... You'd fit right into my school of mechanics ;)
