Hey peeps first post for me, im pushing 35's silverstons and think i found the point where it's to much for the diff, front diff let go... sungears are missing teath... Now my questions are. can a rear diff go in the front ?
if not are the sun gears the same?
If they are the same front to rear diff i can build a nother one out of my old rear.

third is silly but has anyone welded there front befor? has man hubs so it will free wheel. Just wont turn

Anyhelp would be good, thanks Adam

I'm assuming you have a Pajero ??

The rear diff is bigger than the front. It won't fit.
I can't tell you if the sun gears are the same, I would assume no.
Welding the front diff is an option I suppose. I don't know anyone that has done it though.
