The MD Stuff is great!

I have front and rears in my Disco and the Rangie before that!

They bolt straight in without any mods and have front and rear lockers built in.

Added to that you can lock em in anytime without having to worry about if you have turned on the compressor or not before hand.

Get a price on a pair of lockers from ARB + the compressor + GQ or toyota diffs + the mods works required to get them in and perhaps the engineering costs if you want to keep it all strictly legit ....

...and then ask Cranky how much he wants for his MDs! If it is less than $5k you would have to be in front!

Yep. I am running 1.5" spacers all round. Probably should have gone 2" but you get that.

i think the 60 series is a great diff, but i personaly would not run wheel spacers.

id prefer the hub to be the widest point and have the least amount of offset in the wheel.

Both in Disco axle housings with a rovertracks toy conversion 30 spline

Pretty easy to do and fairly bombproof
