Hi guys,

Back drop of my questions are I'm looking to whack in an auto front diff locker and plonking 33" muddies on my lifted Nav.
Been keeping an eye out for a front diff from a petrol d22 to put in my yd25. I currently have 3.9:1 ratios and now I have an opportunity to grab another front diff from a petrol v6 but the ratio is 4.6:1.
My questions are;
Am I able to swap out the diff gears from my current diff for the diesel (3.9) so the diff from the petrol has a 3.9 ratio, and then use that? (Follow on question is, is there anything special I need to change like cv's to make the diff compatible?)
Or,
Am I better off getting another rear diff housing with a 4.6 ratio and swapping out both diffs so I'm running both at 4.6. (Follow on question, is this ratio too high for running 33's? Am I likey to be revving the tits off it and have no first gear?)

Any help and info greatly appreciated guys...
Cheers
