hi im after a grand vitara front diff for my 93 vitara lwb

[Mugwui]

The diff or the carrier (third member)?

[shamus]

just a diff cause i keep breaking these poxy ally 1s

Good luck - they're hard to come by.

SuziFour wreckers in western Sydney had one last time I was out there - worth a shot, even if the freight is gonna hurt.

suzifour quoted me $90 to freight a Steel fromt GV diff to Melbourne.
Think it was $450 for the diff plus freight.
It was a later model one, different mount, but they were happy to include the mount in the deal.
Not sure if that included axle housing.
This was about a month ago.
I finaly got one from Marybourough wreckers Qld.
That was $385... and only $80 freight to Melbourne.

PS
Be careful of terminology.
I nearly got just an axle housing delivered, with no diff housing.
And I have a steel GV/XL7 axle housing, without a diff, from another misunderstanding. Cost me $250 for that mistake.
But I guess I could sell it, if somebody gets a diff without axle housing.

front sierra diff housing can be made to fit, with a mod to the cross member, or a grind and weld on the sierra housing.
May be your option if you got fabbing skills.
Was too hard for me to go down that path
