are vitara and sierra centres compatable? i have a vitara available for parts and wondered if i could swap centres?

front one will fit, but its alloy so you dont want to do it.

Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

so the centres are not worth swapping? not even crown and pinion

Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

crown and pinions into sierra centres are a very common swap for lower gearing. but again only the front one is any use for this

Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

a front one

Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

i.e the front ones from a vit can be used in a sierra front and rear

Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

oh now i get you i thought that only fronts would work. do you happen to know what ratio they are?

Author:  tanshi [ Wed Jul 21, 2010 5:33 am ]
Post subject:  Re: vitara diff centres into sierra

depends on the model of vitara.

most are 5.1:1

ratios for a vitara i believe 4.3 4.6 4.8 5.1
sierra you can get 3.7 3.9 4.1
aftermarket you can get 5.3

5.1 usually
apparently you need to do some creative engineering to stop the pins that go into the spider gears from sliding out and breaking stuff. like hammer time or tack weld them in place.

no you need do nothing special.....as i have said before you get some thick industrial o-rings from a bearing joint and seat them between the ring gear and centre.....job done and they will never move (and it looks alot neater and is easily removed.)


note you don't need to do this if running air lockers.
