Titans are different, if i remember correctly, guys in the states put the titan front diff in for the bigger centre/locker but are still limited by ratio choices.

I agree with Joshy, You would be better of making a D22 kit.
Do you have an Engineer in Victoria who will sign off on the mods? At a guess a lane change test would be needed.

No probs Matt,
Will give you a call soon to touch base.
By the way ran into a guy at a tyre shop today who apparently has his 97 hilux that you ar SASing at the moment + doing some other work on his truck. He couldn't commend you enogh on how good you work is.

wouldn't you just replace both ends with GU diffs

Would that mean you could put portal hubs on?

Potentially.
Some issues to consider... to which I'm not sure of the answers.
1. What side drop is the transfer case on the D40... does it match the GU diff?
2. What width is the GU diff? How does that mate up with the width needed to suit the D40?
All will be revealed in good time boys... as for the request to do a D22?
We are up for that... for sure.
Will all depend on who wants to step up first for the surgery!

Transfercase won't match a GU diff. GU is a wider track, so a cut a shut may be possible.

Patrol transfer drop is drivers side, D22 and D40 are passenger side. But Buds makes his own housings now doesnt he? so easy enough to run a "flipped" diff with Gu internals. As for width its close on my D22 so id imagine with the d40 it would either be right on the money or only require a slightly different offset rim.

A lane change test costs about $7000.00 for each vehicle.

So what price are we looking at if I was to donate my D22 for the first surgery.
Hey Scotty, I had my hand up first to donate my D40!

Thems fight'n words!
Thnaks for the feedback and info... very good if the width of GU is similar to that of D22 and hopefully D40.
Plenty to do first before we consider these SAS's boys... now that we have some serious interest there are some major issues to over come.
Mainly ABS.
Question:
Does anyone on here have access to Nissan schematic diagrams/part number brealdowns on:
GU
D22
D40
We need to work out if there are any similarities between the ABS systems on these vehicles.
We got lucky on the Hilux, as it had same parts on the 80/105 Series as the Hilux so the ABS worked.
So if anyone can help with access to databases, part numbers, schematic drawings of the ABS systems etc it would be really appreciated.
This is an example of what we got for Toyota's... individual part numbers and good diagrams of how things work:
If older D22's don't have ABS then that will be a lot easier, and is a pretty straight forward conversion.
I'm guessing all D40's would have ABS? Please correct me if I am wrong.
Cheers
Matty
I know my D40 has ABS and the manual (which is for a 2005 D40 and that was the first in the D40 range) also describes ABS, so I'm guessing it's ABS all the way for D40s.
The ABS sensors on our D40s are out on the wheels. The sensor rotor is part of the wheel hub itself and is not removable (according to the manual, but we all know what a 2.1 metre ex-wrestler armed with a 20kg sledgehammer and a cold chisel is capable of).
If you're going to use the original hubs, you will probably have to engineer something which means you may be able to use the original ABS gear too.
The manual may have part numbers in it but if it does they're hidden away, probably behind the cookie tin.
