Does anyone have any pics of the assembled kits. About to fit them to a spare housing and can't see how it all goes together.

Slowly getting there with zero info. So far have had to mod every part including the diff housing.
Does the original wheelbearing get used or is the axle now supported by the diff centre and the centre bearing in the stub axle

Original wheel bearing should be discarded - that's what makes the axle fully floating.

The kit must have been for a non abs diff. Even down to one of the stub axle bolts hitting the lumpy bit on the diff where the sensor goes.

Not a chance that this kit can be fitted to a jimny with abs. But pissed off that I have wasted money and time on it

On the up side, at least you can re-sell it to re-coup costs?

What choices are there for rear disks on a abs jimny? Don't really care to much about full floater.
Are there any actual kits that fit and use Nissan callipers?
