Are the chassis the same?

Its a NT sierra. With WT diff housing and axles, NT centres, and WT destroying flex.

Not to mention nt diffs with a good driver often go much much further than a wt diffed rig

Thats a bit of a stretch You are talking 75mm extra wheel track and the same flex stock for stock. I'd say to be more accurate, a WT is more stable than a NT, and with the same driver, could be driven further than a NT sierra .

so if im dropping my replacing my wt sierra onto a nt sierra chassis. Only thing I will need to worry about will be the spring hangers?
My next question is do you have to refab them if your using wt diffs?
