1) Is this the locker that works on the Gen1 SWB 3.0L?
2) Has anybody had issues with the gear difference?
3) Can the SR front gears be swapped into the Gen1 3.0L front?
4) I took a quick look, but didn't see a locker switch.... where is it?
5) What other goodies do I want from this critter? Drive shaft?


1) I think they all will so you may as well have the 9.5" diff this one has. The only issue might be the drive shaft U-joint but that seems to be potluck
2) You don't have 4.6 gears in the front already?
3) Nope, 3.5L Gen2 diffs are bigger. Some have talked about a full diff swap but I'm pretty sure it's not a bolt up
4) Next to the cigar lighter forward of the shifter (R/D lock)
5) Drive shaft if your Gen 1 U-joint is different. Front brakes, upper control arms, trailing arms, although you'll get those with the axle I'm sure. I' think that's it.
