    4 Pinion Rover Diff

    I need some advice I am trying to replace the 2 pinion diff in the front of my Stage 1 with a 4 pinion diff.
    I can get an ex army hemisphere part no FRC8625 but Im not sure if this carrier is for a 6x6 which means it will be for a 4.7.
    I need a carrier for a 3.54 does anyone know if you can machine the 4.7 carrier to accept the 3.54 crown wheel??
    Or should I just buy a Jack Mac centre

    Thanks
    Looks like if I machine 3/16 of an inch from the carrier it should work
    Suspicious if Mal was suggesting it wasnt a good idea.
    Maybe Ill just buy a Jack Mac

    Could you fit a Truetrac LSD? Might be better value for money.

    FRC8187 is the differential case (4 pinion) for the 4X4 3.54 ratio diff. That will be a 6X6 4.7 ratio one that you have. Rather than machine the carrier and possibly weaken it I would have the crown wheel machined. From memory I think you have to machine 3/16 inch off. It wont weaken the crown wheel as there is plenty of meat on it. I have a 4 pinion one in my front diff and they are much better than the 2 pinion ones especially if you put the 24 spline axles in as well
