and sometimes the 3.7 fronts are fitted with 2 pin carriers instead of 4...another reason to use 3,9's as they are 4 pinion fronts, stronger and have more difflox available...christover

nope sorry, 1.0 litre diff stuff don't fit 1.3 stuff...but there is a rare 4:1 diff ratio in some 1.3 trays, I think....my zook is 1.0 diffs, I am going to use LJ diffs to lower my ratios as they do fit 1.0 stuff.... some vitara diffs of 4.56 and 5.12 can be modified to fit 1.3 sierra diffs....christover

narrow track axles are the same 1.3 or 1.o but they have different backing plates for brakes, so are fiddly to interchange

Short wheel base is what my mate has..
But just interested to know if most of the zook diff parts r interchangeable?
