No.....coily front is the reverse pinion type. Not sure of it's technical terminology, either way, no.

YES It will fit.

You will have to move the steering arms. (unsure what you can use to change the hub arms, More reasearch needed)

Coily is Hipinion so arms run under diff centre.

WT is low pinion.

To clarify BlueSuzy's point, the tie rod on a coily runs behind the diff. The diff centre is a high pinion type and the tie rod runs underneath that. If you were to fit a WT diff centre you would not be able to fit the tie rod back on.

Have heard the coily's wheel track is wider. so draglink and stuff will have to use custom or coily.

Arms unsure. (i thinkk there was talk about this not long ago, or i think it was for a jimny mainly.) :?

So it fits but it's too much dicking about to make it work. What's the point! If you want it for lokka reasons modify a jimny air lokka. Problem solvered!!

if you could do it with bolt on bits it would be very little dicking around.

WT swivel hubs fit coily, Jimny front diff center fits coily front (allowing
coilys to run 4.1 diff ratios :twisted:) and yes a WT diff center will fit in the
front if you change the swivel hub, but I'm not sure if WT axles and Coily
axles have the same spline.

Have you put the baby 1L size jimny front into the 1.3 size front housing?!

Jimny is 4.09 ratio.

I have a WT not a coily. I'm just beginning to nut out a coil conversion and Ive been told the coilys run a better wheel bearing setup. And maybe some steering advantages???

Running a coily front end is ALL disadvantages. Search all the problems coilys have.

no they don't, if anything its a little worse for larger wheels. they are the same as a vitara. and steeing is no better, just more of a pain if you want to run different ratios.

You will need a custom drag link and tie rod. WT ones are not long enough.
