As title really.

I keep an eye out for rarer bargain sierra bits when wondering around scrap yards.


I found an early mark II yesterday with the 2.3L diesel engine. The Vinplate code for the axle said U is this a 3.38:1 ?

I tried to get at the diff tag to have a look but with no wheels on it and another car on top I decided not to

I must take a list of codes with me next time

U is a 3.62:1

code list below will help

M=3.14 (7" or 7.5")
A=3.36 (7.5")
V=3.38 (7")
U=3.62 (7")
3=3.64 (7.5")
9=3.91 (7.5")
D=3.92 (7")

Cheers for that

doh it can sit there then

I did try searching and got at least two differant answers...

there was confusion some years ago when a wrong list was posted, and then people got confused what was right. A and V are both 3.3*.

Sorry for asking what might sound like a dumb question. I have used a 1.8 sierra pinto and my diff code is 88BG 4033 AE. I know diff codes have been covered a few times on here but i can't find mine. Lol. Hope someone can help.....
