is it the facelifted model? if it has the alloy front diff it will break pretty easy off road with just bigger tires, the later ones are steel so much better
rear axles are weak if you fit a locker and get too excited with em as well

have looked at it for my GV, anything above 35mm and things start getting messy. steering shafts, fuel lines, clutch line, shifters, strut brace, etc. So I just ended up making room in the guards for my 31's.

in the GV's the front driveshafts spin ALL the time unless you have manual hubs. the front pump used 4-8psi to engage the front diff.

But it says not for V6 model, GV_QLD how many bolt is the stock rear 10 or 12?
they are 12 bolt, just remember in 2003 they changed the center and ring gear to a larger size.
the rear is easy for pre 03 GV's any vitara locker should work.
