have the choice of using nissan G60 diffs or hilux diffs on my suzuki build up what do you nissan giuys think are stronger the nissans or the toyotas diff wise that is

I think the nissan ones would weigh alot more then the hilux diffs for not that much difference in strength so for a suzi wouldnt it be better to go with the lux diffs

I thought the G60's atleats had a H260 rear diff, not sure on the front. This size diff is pretty big and even on the GU's they grind a fair chunk of metal off the bottom.
I think it would be way overkill for putting under a zook.

nissan diffs are heaps stronger, go the nissan diffs

have seen plenty of lux diffs/bend/snap crack /brack and lock up so i would go gq diffs or small gu diffs as only some td6's have large rear diffs and some 4.8 pet have them and it not ground off like a toyota.nissan do this in factory clearance to comply with rta laws

I know it's only a buggy and therefore lighter than a full rig but how many toyota owners do a diff swap to nissan diffs compared to the other way round.

But arnt the hualtech boys running hilux stuff, with minimal breakages.

But anyway back to the nissan stuff.
GQ would be good, the rear would be lighter than a G60 rear. And a GQ front would just need a little bracing and it is quite strong. And would be stronger in std form than a hilux (but I have no real world testing to back this).

The GU front does appear to be very strong. This is what some of the winch trucks are using and they have 200+rwkw's. Only heard they are having issues with hubs, but since they are the cheap part they aint real fussed.
