triton enquiry
Posted: Wed Jul 18, 2007 8:25 am
Hi, Hav'nt had any input re my Triton/L200 rear end enquiry.
I have done a bit of research at the local mitsi dealer and have the following info. It may be suitable for tech section.
Diff by engine type.
4G64-4D5Turbo..............4.875
4D5 non turbo................4.875
6G7...............................4.9
4M40.............................4.636
Near as I can tell, there is a track change around 2002 from 1435mm to 1480mm and a diff center/axle change 2003.
All Triton/L200 have high front pinions.
If anyone can add to this I would appreciate input.
It seems that in order to get a wider diff then I will have mismatched ratios front to rear. ie 4.9 to 4.875 or 4.636 to 4.625. The latter pair are closer.
Both these pairs equate to tread wear difference of 2 mm or less on 31,s.
Since I don't drive on hard surfaces then the difference should not matter.
Any comments?
Thanks, Al
