Just wondering if the diffs are exactly the same and I can do a straight swap,
Also are the ratios of a 92 wagon the same as 96 cab/chassis
thanks again

Rear wheel bearingl housing different. disk brake ones dont bolt up.

you can put a drum diff centre into a disk housing but not disk into drum.
disk has no thrust block in it.
drum housing is longer on the axle tubes also.

I wanted to swap diff centres from two going vehicles, looks like you cant swap only put drum style into disc.
Once again a lot of time saved.
thanks
