front locker for Gen 1 SWB???

Post by constapa »

Hi,
This is my second question at the same day. I'm sorry but the upgrade fever is high now :) . Is it possible to fit a front locker to my 2.6L Gen 1? I asked in my country (Greece) and they told me that i need a Gen 2 front axle to swap the things needed for this. Also (because Gen 2's are rare here) L200's front axle will do the job. Any input and more details on the above infornation will be appreciated. My truck has 4.625 ratio. I must stick with this because i have already the rear locker and i don't want to waste it so any solution must match this ratio...
Thanks

Here in the US, I believe the ARB 110(?) will fit the 3.0L V6 front axles, including the Gen I versions. I have a V6 now in my front (4-cyl truck) that is installed with an LSD. The V6 front will fit easily. Over here we need to get the dust shields and brake parts as well. And in the process, most people also get the brake booster as it is considered a better one than the 4-cyl.

You might want to search 4x4Wire's Mistu Tech forum for more info.
