Hi I have searched throughout the web looking for a tutorial in regards to swapping front and rear 4.3 diffs from a VVT 2005+ into a 98 Jimny so I can return my gearing back to standard after fitting bigger tyres.
How easy is this? Are they a straight bolt off bolt on or is there modification of the diff housing required?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, would you know if the centres are a straight swap?

keep in mind if you dont have a full floating conversion in the rear end the axles dont just slide out.

So it has to be a whole diff swap and not just the centres?

pretty sure the only difference is the R&P.
