Front Diff for 60 series

Post by fat071 »

Hi all,
Just wondering if the 2h diesel 60 series front diff is the same ratio as the 2f petrol 60 series diff?
As I have got a chance to replace mine with a rebuilt one out of a 2f 60 series.
Thanks in advance,
Mick

I'm pretty sure that all 60 series cruisers were 4.11.

All 60's, 40's, 55's etc, are the same diff ratio. ;)
The early 3 speed 40's had the different ratio.
Luv the sound of a diesel,
especially a Chev 6.2!
Its GONE.........Replaced by a qik HDJ105.

de-pends what was reco'd

there were a pair of diffs in the forsale section for $1k, and the front diff is probably worth more than the back so if brakes etc have been reco'd aswell then it probably is worth $400.

Is it really that common for the front diff of a 60 to wear out? its not like they get used much, unless you do a shitload of 4wding

I suppose not, but you wouldn't wanna pay $400 for a s/hand one

were talking about the whole diff assembly i believe. And if it has been fully reco'd this will cost about $400 in parts. not including cv's.
