trackick front diff
« on: November 25, 2004, 03:34:27 AM »
Hi !
Newb here, and I have a question concerning the front diff.
My friend has a 89 sidekick 2 doors and he broke his front diff. I can have a complete mecanic from a 91 4 door sidekick AUTO, will the 4 door diff fit or is it different?
And what about the ratio, I guess its the same?

Thanks a lot!

Was the 89 2 door an auto or a manual?

The 89 is a manual, that's mainly why I was wondering if it is a direct fit ! ???

ditto, if the housing is broke, not the ring and pinion, they you can switch the gears from the broken one to the good one.;  but if you can't set the backlash on the gears leat a pro swap the gears.

He broke the lower diff mount ( it completely ripped off ) AND I "guess" the pinion gears.
His 4H/L still works, and his front wheels turns, but only if he goes straight.

The minute he turns, you hear the gears cracking and the truck stops, so I guess there's nothing worth keeping :(

sounds more like he broke the spider gears inside the carrer.  but if you going to just throw all that junk away then could you send it to me insted? ;D
