Hi Gile

I know jeep97tj was asking a lot of questions about these diffs not to long ago. Their was a really informative thread written about them in the rover section. It may pay to just have a quick search and look in their for the pic’s your asking for.

Also may I ask what size tire you are planning to run on the diff’s?

I’ll have to come have a look see when you have finished.

Cool that sound's like a good plan! Very sismilar to what N*A*M was going to run on his rover.

So from what I know which is fairly limited, the volvo portals com with factory drum breaks. Which usually run 20" rims standard. Are you changing the breaks to dicc's to fit the 16" rims?

no the volvo's rin 16" rims standard. I may change to discs at a later date but for now drums are fine.
hopefully it will all go to plan, but you know that the best laid plans generally go to shite...
what you drive?

Mate I drive a suzuki. Nothing really special



Trying to decide if I should just lock the diffs and be happy with the size tire (33's). Or if I should buy some lux diffs and get something a little bigger (say 36's)

Hate spending money on stuff then changing your mind three months later. But at the same time their is no point having the gear if you haven't learnt how to wheel it.

I think you should keep all your stock zook stuff. Lock(weld) front and rear then it'll all break....then get yota gear
