Not a lot of articulation, but I want one!
I recall seeing one on the travel ramp at an expo, mil spec. It really surprised me at how far it didn't get up the ramp, barely up it at all. That said, it's probably sprung to carry 2t.Quote:

no reason that you cant use 2 switches to operate each seporatly.
i wonder if you ran the rear axle like a powered trailer would it stress the other driveline running unlocked.
the work shop manuals show for england a transfer box for 4 cyl 90-110 without the center diff and free wheel hubs.i also wonder how the front wheel drive transfer boxes work.
Yes that 6x6 was brilliant off-road, but....would a Californian surfer want to cruise down a smooth pavement in one?
No!
Modern LR wouldn't touch it!
Seriously good vehicle though.
Tell me, would a current Defender be able to slide over a tree like that or would it take out the handbrake?
Bill's Landy had little wheels under the guts so it could do that.Quote:

Powerband, is there any chance of those sales brochures being scanned larger please ?
They are opening up as tiny little pictures ATM, too small to read.
