Swapping a pair of gu 2.8 diffs into gq ute. got a couple quick questions;

Are the free wheeling hubs interchangable?

looks like the draglinks have different balljoint tapers?

The guy wrecking the car reckons they came from a 6 cylinder turbo diesel (but definetly not a 4.2) this can only be a 2.8? he swears it had 3.0l on the block...I believe in a gu td , 6 cylinder was only ever 4.2 or 2.8= making these 4.625 ratio?

all diff's fit 3.5, 3.9, 4.11, 4.3 or 4.6 centers that is, all diff housings are the same in the old datson's GQ or GU. (other than width) will fit.
