Have been thinking of putting a clocked marlin dual adaptor in my lux.
One of these Image
A MC08-R10.

Are there any disadvantages to running a clocked rear case apart from the obvious the front drive shaft will be at steeper angle (will have a high pinion front centre and dont plan on a huge lift) and that the rear shift will need a bend in it?


If I decide to go this way I will need to sell my Advance adaptors (Marks 4x4) dual case adaptor PM me if your interested in a brand spanker Dual adpr for $400 plus freight. www.marks4wd.com/Hilux-dual-tc.htm

I like the idea of this adaptor I just wish it had have been around when I brought my dualer.

the best thing about this set up is the front drive flange being out of the way. My front flange is going to cop a flogging.

do they make a x member to suit the adaptor?(comp x member)
and how much for the setup?I would be keen on changing my setup too.

Details on all of Marlins Duals is here http://www.marlincrawler.com/dualcase.html
Havnt found out about freight from them yet.

FROR do a crossmember and skid to suit the clocked adaptor for the same price as the standard one shown here http://www.frontrangeoffroadfab.com/crossmember.htm
Freight to Aus is $88US
