nope sorry mate. the rear is 33 spline and the front is 31 spline.
I think a rear lsd from a pathfinder and Mq will fit in. some one else may be able to confirm that
thanks ben its just i got another complete LSD diff for $56 nz and it looks pretty good so now that i dont have to replace mine i thought it would be good if possible to put in front
You are right. Pathfinder/Terrano rear lsd fits the front diff of GQ. I have it on my Safari.Quote:

You should go back to 2WD when on asphalt

I had to go around corners in tangents i.e. power on almost straight power off turn in heavy till slightly to far - power on and straight again till I got round the corner, was fine on loose dirt
So on my new vehicle I have a air locker so I can have the open diff till I need the extra traction with it locked
