Dual Case

Post by vrunner »

After having the dual case in the Hilux it's hard to go back to single case in the Patrol. I see that Marks have a dual case adaptor for Patrol now. I was wondering if anybody here has had any experience with them and can offer comments on quality, fit etc;.

Having looked at the lenght of the adaptor (9 1/2 inches) it's going to make the rear drive shaft very short which is going to increase the angle a lot on droop. This I don't think is a good thing. On the Hilux I was able to move the rear axle back enough to keep the standard tail shaft.

Cheezy is the only person I know who has one, but his rig isn't quite finished yet.
