Hmm...don't think I'm going to be able to give you too much help :|

There is a spec sheet up at www.warfs.org but it isn't detailed. There are a few links from there and they may have pics of what you are after. Also, one Rocky dude from Northern QLD has or is getting his hands on the manual for the Rocky, maybe able to give you detailed info, check the members section for who (think he has some flex shots in there).

And if you find out what R&P ratio they run, let us know!!

Is this "rocky" machine essentially the same as your ferozas?

(forgive me if im commiting a mortal sin, like calling a landcruiser a jeep or similar)

IF it is then, IF someonw is getting specific photos could you rip some off of your steering box and steering box mounts?

cheers
rob

(thanks guys, quick responses!) ;) ferwoaza and andy!

Rob....PM BundyRumandCoke for the info you seek.

According to his Member Profile, he's just purchased a Rocky Workshop Manual.

BJ a few things are similar but there are differences. The Rocky is solid axle front (but there is a model that has IFS, not sure how common they are in this country tho) and the Feroza's are all IFS. Hubs on the front are basically the same, discs same etc. I don't know with steering. I can nab some pics of what my Feroza has in the steering department this weekend if you like, I have to investigate a leak coming from that area anway...
