Is it posible to use a rear axel of a Suzuki Samuray with a Sierra Engine/Gearbox ? I want the book's rear suspension with a Ford engine and
here in Spain must be a Sierra + Samuray/Van/... rear axle.
Cheers, Modest
Its deffinately possible, i bought a gearbox off a guy who offroads with Suzuki's but puts Pinto engines and boxes in it instead of the under
powered zuki units.
Cheers.
They are quite narrow and the ratio is about 4:1.1 which is why they are so nippy. They are used to replace the scarcer reliant axles in one of the race series.
This website shows a couple of ratios fitted to the Samurai:

Having had a quick look at the Net, particularly in the States a wide range of shorter than standard ratios are available. However, the standard
ratios of 3.727 & 3.909 would be fine.
