Has anybody seen a thread or know anyone who’s fitted the locking rear differential from the tremor trim onto, say the AWD Hybrid? Seems like it should/might be possible

This would cost so many thousands of dollars in parts and labor that it is impractical, if it's possible at all.

You would need more than just the diff, you'd need all the other parts and software as well. I have my doubts that the diff connections on the Tremor and AWD hybrid would work together anyway given that they use a different transmission.

I have one of those in the front of my cherokee. Lol. I don't see why you couldn't install a lsd to one. Lock rite? Ox locker or Some along those lines without reprogramming the computer.
