the 3:9 centres from a NT 1.3 will fit in yours, if thats what you mean, but not the entire NT diff/axle assembly, as spring perches are wrong. could be made to fit, but quite bit of work for a backwards step.
I think lockers are the same for wt 3:7 and NT 3:9
did you bend yours by launching or something ???

front splines are different to back splines.
but NT and WT splines are the same.
you will need to change over the yokes, or redrill bolts pattern.
NT yokes and WT yokes are interchangeable. I'm told.
bit hard to get nut off sometimes, tho.

be sure not to use a NT 1.o litre 4:1 diff, tho, they won't fit. christover

make sure you put extended breathers on your diffs, makes them less likely to suck in mud, therefore last much longer.

yes, but change over the yoke/input of the diff to match the tailshaft bolt pattern, or change end of tailshaft to match diff bolt pattern.
Not done it myself, but helped a mate do it in his.
He needed a rattle gun to get the nut off the yoke.
