can any one tell me if the pinion flange on the rear of gu 2.8 has the same spline on it as a gq 92 4.2td,as i've just changed centres and my tail shaft doesnt fit

so i need to know if i can swap my old pinion flange onto the new diff centre

Yes as patrol man says it swaps straight over and the tension settings for the nut is between 196-284 nm. Over tighten it and you will increase preload on the pinion bearing and cause premature failure. Leave it too loose and it will cause premature failure of the bearings.
