Are Front And Rear Diff Centers The Same In HJ60's???

i.e I have welded rear diff, used it for a while, now want to put welded center in front diff.

At The moment I have a setup where I have welded rear diff and run a dummy drive axle (drive splines cut off) when I'm on bitumen. sick of changeover procedure - figure front diff welded would be easier.

Identical centres, but your turning circle will be sh!te unless you wanna lock&unlock your front hubs whenever you want to turn normally...

yeh but it will turn the opposite way in the front so your front wheels will go backwards while your back wheels go forwards

great for 4 wheel burnouts.
