Anyone got any info on the 4WD Systems part time kit for discos?
What sort of hubs, how strong, etc etc
Cheers

what would be the main reson for this? I could imagine that fuel consuption would be slightly better in 2wd on the black top. But would it be worth the time and effort not to mention the $$$

main reason for me would be so I dont have to worry as much about front driveline angles/vibration.
For the price of the kit I get a bit better fuel consumption, DIFFERENT handling (notice I didnt say better cause personally I kinda like full time), and the less vibes deal.
Ive got a DC front shaft but the pinion angle isnt right so I've still got slight vibes around 80kph, when I drop the front shaft all is smooth and I dont like the idea of what the vibe is doing to pinion bearings + i wanna go up another inch which will only make matters worse. Gotta do something with the arms, but Im still looking for more flex so I dont want to put too much effort into them until I figure that bit out.
Looking at options.
Cheers
