Hi Giys

I have got my hands on a 1lt ezy rear locker and diff, and I would like to know if you can install it into a 85 model 1.3 rear diff?

cheers

The only way you can fit a 1.0 centre to a 1.3 is if you use the complete diff housing. If you are NT you can get away with it but not in a WT.
I don't think 1.0 centres or axles are as strong as 1.3 stuff.

No.

1.0 centres are not as strong as 1.3 but the axles are the same (rear)

It's not worth swapping to a 1.0 axle and loosing self adjusting brakes etc.

1.0 are 4.1:1 ratio too, so you can't just swap one end, you'd have to do the front as well.

Steve.

PS yes, I know you could use a 1.0 front and a 4.1:1 jimny rear in the front of a sierra but that's a lot of stuffing around to use a cheap locker in the rear.
