MU Rear end for TF Rodeo

Post by rainsey »

Hey all,

Some time ago on ebay I noticed a MU rear axle with disks that in theory should bolt on to a TF (98 - 2000) Rodeo. Being that I am MU illiterate and cannot find any semblance of a workshop manual for one, can anyoe advise what year MU should I be looking at and, if I could score one, would my current ARB air locker transfer across?

I beleive that they moved from a spring to coil rear end at some time but do not know when. Obviously looking for the spring variety.

Cheers

Hey, thanks for the feedback. So basically I am looking for a pre 98 MU or probably easier, a pre 91 jack.

Cheers

Pre 88 jack has a smaller diff. And you won't find a MU in Australia that was built after 96 :x dam import laws

The bloke I bought my MU off bought a 99 Rodeo and swapped all the good bits over. This included the rear axle disc to disc and front diff. Straight swap no dramas. As far as diffs I'm not sure of the difference
but he did say part of the reason for the swap he already had a lokka for the MU front and it was different to the Rodeo front. My MU is a 93 model. Try going to www.clubisuzu.com theres more MU gurus there and you can search the classifieds.
Cheers,
