Front and rear wheels not spinning at the same speed?

Covo,

I would also take up Heath's generous offer of assistance, as there does seem to be an issue, and two sets of eyes and hands will be helpful

Yep, i think another set of eyes would be good. Just checked turning tail shaft and watching wheel. about 4.3 turns for 1 turn of the rear wheel. about 5.1 turns for the front wheel to turn once.

Well, I would call it as 4.3 ratio in the rear but jury is still deliberating on the front... 5.1 is "interesting" so maybe 4.6 ratio out of a 2.8 or 4.3 and something else is stuffed?

What ratio is on the compliance plate?

[Covo71]

HG43 on the plate so I believe that is 4.3.

Yep, sure is.

Anyone on here sell diff gears? How hard is it to change over?

[happygu]

4.3's are a fairly common size.

Should be able to pick up a set from either the wreckers, or maybe your local fourby shop tnat is putting in difflocks

Not so hard but a bit of work and setting up the backlash etc etc. With the right tools and know how, it would be a few hours work just to remove and refit the gears. Not counting the removal of the centre.

You could try K&A 4wd wreckers in Orange to see if they have a complete centre. I got one off them about a year ago for my old hilux and from memory it was $300

Hi Happygu, do they not still use it if they put in lockers?
