I'm new to samurais and was wondering does any one know on a samurai are the diffs interchangeable with the tracker. And if so what will fit

Google says it's the other way around... Front third from the tracker works in the sami axles... There are apparently some issues with spline count depending on years, and it sounds like the third member from the front of the Tracker is aluminum, and doesn't hold up so well. Rear Tracker thirds are bigger units than the sami ones, and can't be used without a hybrid housing. Sounds to me like the better option is to gear the steel sami thirds, or throw some t-case gears at it (assuming gearing is your motive for the swap...)

You are correct. I was mistaken on that one. It is the tracker/ sidekick front that will work on the sammy.
The sammy front and rear carriers are the same and so are the ring gears. The difference is in the shaft spline count side carrier gears. Usually people take the track/kick gears out and put them in the sammy carrier.
The track/kick carrier is also aluminum and therefore is weaker but it can be used if you dont want to swap out anything.

What is said above is correct. If swapping the thirds, then keep in mind a sami front is 22 spline, and most trackkick are 26 spline as is the rear sami third. Side gears can be swapped around, and there are also 26 spline chromoly's available for the front.

Just gear the t case or like mentioned above get the tracker gears installed in sami difs . . Or swap rear axle. What size tires you planning to run
