So my car is a 1997 4.0 petrol so will have 2 pin diffs fitted.
Can anybody tell me what the actual difference is internally between 2 pin and 4 pin diffs?
Is it possible to make a current 2 pin diff into a 4 pin?
Thank you
 
In theory 4pin is stronger, in reality p38 axle is so heavy duty 2pin is more than adequate.

2 pin has one set of spider gears with a pin between them
4 pin has two sets with two overlapping pins (below)
