Hello, hoping someone can give me some info on how hard it is to remove front air-locker from NP pajero and fit standard diff centre back in.
Some might be thinking WTF, but workmate is selling his NM and said I can have the air locker if I pay to remove it.

Thank for any help Chris.

Removing the front diff is not a particularly tricky job for somebody mechanically minded, but it takes a few hours. I pulled mine out by myself, and it took me the best part of a day - but I had a few minor issues along the way :oops: and actually lowering the diff from the vehicle by myself wasn't my idea of fun.

Once the diff is out, then somebody needs to swap centres - I paid a mechanic to do that as a "back yard" job.

Any idea what the ratios are? If you both have the same ratios you may be better to swap diffs - that will save some additional work.
