I believe the Front Diff is the same as the sierra's (Different Ratios though) but the rear is larger and is only compatible with other Vitaras and GV's (Different Ratios though) up to 2004 I think....

Hi rob_macca67

Thank you for that info im trying to find E-lockers for mine but seams that there only seams to be the options are limited to air looks like if i want to lockers i might have to go air unless you know of any E-locker option.

See my comment here: Airlocka v LOKKA

U can buy 2 Chinese AirLockers for the price of 1 ARB unit, if u know where to look. Price might have gone up since the fall of the AUD$....

This is what I initially bought for mine: Suzuki Samurai LockRight Lockers (1510-LR, 1530-LR)

Does the Samurai stuff fit the Tara(Vitara) diffs?
Have you still got the link to where you got your Chinese Air Lockers from??
How was the Lock Right Lockers or are they just the similar thing to the LOKKA's?

I bought 2 Sierra Autolockers for my Vit. The rear one slips in no worries because its a 4-pin type, but the front one in the Vitara is only a 2 pin. U can use the 4-pin in the front but just leave out to extra 2 side pins, thus making it a 2-pin type, but u will also need to find a spare square block that is also in the all the rear diffs. This is a critical part in making the AL work. It won't work w/o it. See pic below

They are basically all the same. There is 2 types though. Ones which u re-use your original side gears and then the more expensive ones that supply new side gears but u need to check the spline number though

Hope that helps....
