lsd in front diff

Even if it fits, don't. The LSD in the front will make steering interesting to say the least, like driving a shopping trolley (understeers like a disc plough).
A good compromise is to put the Air Locker in the front diff and leave the LSD in the back. That way you can get extra traction when you need it, and leave the front diff open so you can steer it the rest of the time. When the LSD packs up, put a Air Locker in there as well if you like.

I have a friend who did that modification to his 75 series tojo as well as a 12HT motor and it works extremely well. Particularly at speed on formed dirt roads You can really feel the front wheels pulling you round the corners. Don't know if the front and rear diffs are interchangable on the Patrols but I do know the Patrol LSD is far superior to the Tojo and may even be too much for a front application. Maybe better and cheaper to leave the very good LSD in the back and just put some form of locker in the front. Cheers Rob

Put the locker in the front and top the rear LSD up with Penrites Limslip140 - why waste a Patrols LSD - they are FANTASTIC to say the least. Most shops that say to put a locker in the rear - dont own a Patrol. - really

Rob peter had the GQ patrol and as he said the rear end didnt need any help and he put a detroit in the front.
I used to take his truck on trips and never new as he said it was his secret weapon and never told a sole.
I didnt feel any difference driving it as in steering.
I am getting a detriot put in the rear of my truck give me a call and Ill give you the suppler the price installed was very pleasing a lot better than a major supplier about 350 cheaper he is the importer.

All the best

Not many sleeps now.

Ramp,
Funny you should ask this question. I have a 98 2.8 GU and fitted an air locker to the rear about 6 months ago. Now as I then had a spare LSD And front and rear Diffs are both H233B units I wanted to put the LSD in the front (as its part time 4WD any way I couldn't see it would make much difference an the black top). I rang my dealer and confirmed via VIN numbers that the diffs were H233Bs and he said that it couldn't be done as the splines are different.
I'm now saving for a front air locker.
Post it up if you find that this is wrong or if the LSD can be modified as i would really like to know.Its got to be a cheaper way to more traction.
