Mark I found out what happens if u put a different ratio diff in the back of a 4wd... I just put a jackaroo diff(diesel) into my (petrol) rodeo. The ratios are definitely different. It went in ok and works perfectly in 2wd! In 4wd the back axles turn at a different speed to the front axles!! Not recommended Looks like I'm gonna have to learn how to do pinion bearings and fix up my old one.
