Might be a silly question but can I replace a 4 pin diff with a 2 pin on the rear of my 2000 4.6?
Thanks in advance.

Of course you can but it won't like the torque provided by the 4.6 engine specially if you tow.

Has this been tried or is it theoretical? I wonder if the power difference is significant, any thoughts?

I seem to recall a thread where people near the changeover year sometimes had a 2 pin but I don't know if we ever got to the bottom of whether it was original or someone had replaced it. May have been front rather than rear?
Clearly it was significant enough for Land Rover to upgrade it.

like anything else it depends on how you drive it 2 pin diffs manage ok on the other models

IMHO I wouldn't change it. LR changed it for a reason
