If you still need to buy the Auto to Transfer Adapter and the dual case adapter go with the nissan cases. They are much stronger. Hilux cases have 3 weaknesses. First you will start breaking rear output shafts, Then you will upgrade to a chromo output, Then you will break input shafts so you can then upgrade to a larger 23spline input, Then you will break front output shafts. There is no heavy duty replacment i know of for the front output. Generally the stock gear sets never fail.

The only GQ Transfer i have seen break was Cheezy's after driving it for a few hours with no oil and around 400+HP. Not sure what actually let go. It was in one of Marks first Dual Case set ups at Woodpecker about 4 years ago.

no cant aford a atlas

i already have changed the output shaft in my t700 to suit the hilux
so to go nissan i have to pull the box appart again

for a grand i acn run dual hilux
nissan cases will cost about 2k plus sum stuffn around

hey ruff when you say break how regulary are we talkn
and in what circumstances are they breaking

[Tazz]

I would say spend the extra and go the patrols....

Mates with twin hiluxes are breaking them quite often, but they are running V8's or V6's and min 38's.

One is currently swapping the Luxy stuff for GQ as is sick of breaking the Luxy stuff every few trips.....

If you can afford the extra $$$, do it once and do it right, youl be happier in the long run....

go the trolls...

or there is a LT230 5:1 in the forsale section on here, that is good and cheap.

[MYV84B]

okok i was leaning toward patrols

i will need to add sum wheelbase
i kno dual hulux will add 6.5 inches
anyone know how much longer dual nissan s will

[bj on roids]

just run the LT230

go with somehting other then hilux cases
i have now broken 5 with 70.2hp and 37 and 38.5 boggers
Now upgraded with longfield chomo sharft, but dont like my chances of never breaking one again.

It goes in the 2nd case. There isn't one in the first case.

From memory it was a bearing failer, which might of been brought on from low oil.

dirty rock star picked those dual s from maxtrax
i will hope a set of duals pops up second hand
in the near future tho
