I'm going round in circles trying to find options for ratio changes in this site. Please can someone help me out, i need info that refers to Australian named vehicles. S10 Trooper Hombre Pup are American named vehicles that i'm not familiar with, I'm sure these vehicles are available in Australia but what we call them, I'm at a loss :?

Trooper = Bighorn
Pup/pickup = Rodeo
Rodeo = ?


I'd have to look around to figure out more than those. You guys have some stuff that is branded Holden instead of Isuzu too, so that is something to look at. Basically, look for pre-1986 model year stuff and the diffs should match up pretty well.

Yeah gets tricky when cars are imported by other manufacturers, they rename them. Take my Luv for example, its made by Isuzu but in australia its called a KBD40 Holden Isuzu. 81 model and up Luvs are called Holden Rodeos, Australia even exports what we call Holden Monaros to USA with a chev badge as a GTO :?

Its not so hard. If you kept an eye on the threads youve been posting in you wouldnt be posting rond in circles to try and find out the same answer.

Thats the original thread where you asked about diffs and its got all the info about what was in what and it all came out of Australian Workshop Manuals.



Cheers, Bob.
