Does anyone know for a fact that a Rancher front diff will bolt into a Foreman 450 frame?

Odd that you brought this up because I was just thinking about it today! LOL!  I actually went back and was searching for some of the old ring/pinion threads that we had about it.

Im sure the ratio's are different (lower on the rancher?) even if the mounts were close or were re-fabbed to work.

The ring and pinion are NOT a direct "drop in" change, but in the past the 350 Rancher gears have been installed in the 450 limited slip differentials.  I don't know if the same applies to the  '02+ 450 torque biasing differential.

It did happen, it did work, it was a bit of a gear reduction, however they were WEAK and didn't last long at all.
