I'm in Trouble!!!!!!
Diesel Destroyer:
Ring and Pinions are the gears in the diff.
Vitara use a lower ratio than Samurai.
You will need to take the diff out of the Samurai axle, and strip the diff to remove the R&P then refit the Vitara R&P.
The R&P have to be set up CAREFULLY!!!!!! Not a job for an amature or if you've never done one before get a pro to do it.
Devon 4x4 will do it.
If you set them up wrong it will destroy the diff!!!
If you dont swap the R&P the front and rear axles will turn at different speeds, this will break your drive train in about 1 metre!!

I've had Vitara R&P's (Ring and Pinnions) built into a 2.0L TD Vitara steel diff casing... have a read of that... my mate Rich has a steel casing for sale, email if you're interested and I'll pass his details on - dave@k9rdj.co.uk
The other way to alleviate stresses is to fit front axle drop brackets, available from that lovely man at www.Bits4Vits.com (errrr, that'll be me then? :oops: )
