So Tikka is it 4 pinion or 2? To me if it's 2 pinion that'd be a dealbreaker more so than being Chinese.

Flying home today so will look...pinions are the 'crossmember' things?
Yes the cross shaft in the centre , The pin you can see in the middle between the two axle drive splines;)Quote:

ok there are 4 circles like these around the outside. One pinion goes right thru (2 circles), then there are 2 pinions that separately go in to the center (2 other circles). Does this sound right?
Okay, thanks, yep that's 4 pinion, those "circles" are the cross shafts for the pinion gears. It's the newer ARB "2piece" design.
Okay that's good to know...dropping truck off today and will pick up end of week, keen to post photos of fitment and video of it in action.
Spoke to LR people putting it in - set it up on lathe and all is straight and true. It is so good and like for like they actually think they are produced for ARB on the quiet so they don't miss out altogether! I don't think that is likely. Wheel bearing also needs replacing - bugger.
I'm interested to see how the locker performs.
There are some pictures here http://www.aulro.com/afvb/general-ch...k-company.html of what I think is the HF difflock factory.

Looks like some factories here in the 70s before WPHS.Quote:
