| Post subject: | Maruti Vs WT sierra pinion flange |
I've got my diffs in at arb getting lockers and my 4.6 R&P gears from lowrange offroad... and the diff flanges won't fit over the new pinion. my understanding was that maruti diffs were identical to sierras, is there a slight difference in the flange? (note: im not talking about the bolt spacing for pinion-driveshaft, thats unrelated) spline count is the same, and they said when measured with the verniers it was also near identical however the flange just will not go over the pinion... |

was my thought... but you'd think a reputable shop would be all over that. i'm thinking i'll just buy new flanges and call it good. |

I had same problem once with sierra wt flange on an nt pinion shaft so it isn't just a maruti thing. No idea on specifically what years/models are different though. |

ahh ok... so best (safe) bet would be to buy WT sierra pinion flanges then WT driveshaft flanges to suit? trying to fit to these: http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/suzuki/s ... gears.html |

SierraDan and I had the same trouble a few years back. Between about 10 different diffs we found the spline count and diameter were identical but the spline shape differed with some having a rounded chamfer on the edges, some were square. They weren't interchangeable and we couldn't pick any common theme as to which vehicles would use which type. |

what a pain in the ass. i ended up emailing lowrange offroad to make sure their new flanges fit so i'll order them. Maruti bolt spacing identical to NT sierra isnt it? because i can just order them and be done with it... |

2x Samuari/WT diff pinion flanges and 2x WT tailshaft flanges will be needed from Lowrange, plus 2 Uni joints. My 97 Maruti MG410WT has NT spacing and small bolt sizing on both diffs. Nick |
