    All going well so far. I've only done about 3000km since the install and all of those on road, so can't say anything about offroad performance.
    The good thing is there's been no change to onroad characteristics that I've noticed. The driveline backlash did reduce a fair bit but its coming back a bit now so might be time to do the drive flanges. How pathetic is that on a 23,000km old vehicle. Not to doubt the quality of workmanship on the intsallation, but I don't think they gave me all my original drive flanges back as one has a lot of surface rust on it. I haven't looked to see if its flogged out though.

    I know youve already locked both diffs Damo so once you've done the centre diff with a atb the car will be very Japanese like.....no more clunking at all. On fast dirt or gravel you'll feel as though the vehicle is planted and the peace of mind it brings is reassuring.

    I did have the option just to do the washers which would cost $8 but I bit the bullet. So on loose gravel it's recommended not to go into 4H?

    I have had this done on my 2012 130. Great modification, driveline slop has gone. Good performance on loose windy gravel, stops shuffling between front and rear axles.
    Good when say turning off Tarmac onto a steep uneven gravel drive, you can feel the slip, a turn of a wheel then it locks and up you go.
    Handy when reversing fully laden firewood where you don't wont to lock the centre.
    All good nothing bad just costs a fair bit of money.

    Does anyone with a front atb find it wants to return to centre and when cornering find you have to fight the wheel a bit?

    After driving mine with the cdl ATB and the output shaft done slop is pretty much non existent. Had no plan on spending that much but I guess it's all good
