3Katz Donating Members 122 Member For: 7y 2m 21d Posted 30/09/20 01:28 PM Share Posted 30/09/20 01:28 PM I'm wanting to pick up a FG M86 ute (or wagon) diff for my BA. Doesn't matter if it's LSD or open center but how do I tell if a particular diff is an M86 without relying on stickers or metal tags?

Internally there's probably a way but would require reasonable knowledge on the topic, one would imagine.

I doubt I'd have the knowledge to help with an internal clue... but externally I'd have a chance of recognizing something like a marking/sticker, but surely you can do that sort of determination yourself Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/95968-how-do-i-tell-an-m86-from-others/#findComment-1699455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Katz Donating Members 122 Member For: 7y 2m 21d Posted 01/10/20 05:06 AM Author Share Posted 01/10/20 05:06 AM Yeah that's right, alot of these parts at wreckers are missing tags/stickers. A sticker number would be handy as I may come across one though. An easy tell without might not be possible...

I can't seem find anything on the net to verify that's an M86 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/95968-how-do-i-tell-an-m86-from-others/#findComment-1699467 Share on other sites More sharing options...
