I'm looking at getting some bits together so I can fit a steel front diff housing in my '96 V6 Vitara. While there I may as well fit 5.12 gears eh. So ........ What models came with the 5.12 diffs? is it just the 1600 models? Are the V6 inner CV splines size/number the same? Cheers for the help

5.12's only came out in the 1.6L's. Can't answer the spline Q though sorry. |

Great, cheers guys. Last question....... is there a code on the chassis plate to indicate if the diff ratio is 5.12? Surely the 1600's haven't all got 5.12 diffs? |

im not sure but if you jack the back up you can spin the tailshaft and count how many times the wheel turns to figure it out |

Some came with 4.6's. Mainly the 3sp autos, and the import 4sp autos. No manual 1.6 came out with anything other than 5.12 AFAIK. |

All 1.6 efi swb manuals or autos have 5.12's All 1.6 lwb manuals or autos have 5.12's Swb 1.6 carby auto are 4.6's (i think) |

I've heard there is a model ('89 1.3 carbed swb) that came out with 5.625 diff ratio. I don't know what market they were sold to though. Anyone came across them before? Or are they rare as hens teeth? |

Rare enough that you can pretty much ignore the theory that they ever actually existed

I believe they were available in the US. There was also a tbi injected lwb with a TH180C (trimatic with a lockup converter) and I think that had a 5.38 or something. Also hard to find. Steve. |

All good. I've got a 5.12 gear set for the rear diff coming. Just have to find a set for the front now. Hopefully I'll have a set for that soon

Too lazy to get under for a look ATM, did Suzuki put ratio tags on the diffs or are they stamped on the r&p? |

Is it possible to put 5.12 r+p into Sierra diffs? I remember reading somewhere ya could but a search turned up little. |

Just the fronts. so you need two front vitaras R&Ps. Problem is between the thirds or housings exploding and ppl pinching them for Sierras they are much harder to find than rears (though not too hard). |

LWB were all EFI, and yes, all 5.12 as far as I'm aware. |
