Carnt see a big advantage of using any others, think the splines are different.

You can fit Vitara ring and pinions out of the FRONT! fit these in the front and rear of the sj diffs.

well one advantage wood be that the 410 dif is at a lower ratio there for giving more torque,
i was thinking they was dif splines but i wanna no for sur, can i change the ring and pinions from
the 410 to the sammy diff, also sammys have 4 spider gears un like the standard 3 making the sammy one
stronger. wot wood i gain for fitting the vit ring and pinions, y only the front ones????

Fitting the vit ring and pinions will lower the gearing if a sammy diff, and you can only use the ring and pinions out of the front. I dont know if the 410 will fit or not.

If you want to swap a rear diff for a front diff i have a front hear. Byt yes the rear will fit in the front but you have to change the crown gears to ones from a front diff.

410 diffs won't fit in a sammy axle, nor the ring and pinions, 413 diffs are the same size as sammy diffs but the diff ratios are different and the spline count on the front diff on a sammy is different to the rear.

It would prob be easier to just get a complete front diff instead of swapping the crown gears because if you don't get the backlash and bearing pre load correct when rebuilding it the diff won't last very long.

so only a sammy front diff will go in a sammy front axle?
you cant put a rear sammy one in or change both sammys for 413s?

You can put the rear in the front but you will need to change the crown gears.

And yes aslong os both diffs are either 413 or sammy they will fit in.
