Hey guys -

Since I am going higher, I would like to also go wider. I dont like wheel spacers for a few reasons, so I got to thinking about Hilux diffs...

I am guessing someone must have swapped them in, any info?

yeah its pretty common swap around the place, though I dont know anyone thats done it niceley cause they all seem a bit rough in places

they arent that much wider than a WT diff really, but are a lot stronger

the main points that need sorting out is the steering, seeing you are springover youd need histeer from snake racing or something like that as well as a custom draglink

driveshafts from a WT can be made to fit a hilux flange pretty easy, but for strength you could mod the hilux shafts to fit the sierra transfer flanges

then it might pay to fit the hilux master cyl, but I dont know if many people do that

I never have any luck finding info by searching with google...

I hope to do all the other stuff first (2-3 inch lift, roll bars or cage, lining floor with some paint on stuff), but I am planning to do the diff swaps late in the year maybe, unless the 1.3 shits itself... Then I'll be going a Vit injection!

What would be a normal price for a set of diffs?

prices vary. my set cost $400 for the pair and they had been converted to fit a wide track

Have you done the conversion yet? Do you have MSN, I have a few questions, and email is too slow...

I have them sitting under one of my cars atm, so yeah i guess you could say the conversion is done. I dont have MSN sorry

What did you do regarding steering? Did you put in any power steering setup?

Also, which ratios did you get? 4.8?

Diffs are setup with custom highsteer, and draglink. Has no powersteer atm but my other sierra have vitara powersteer on it.
