last time i read the first post we were talking about a 90?? pretty much the same worldwide except lr are too stingy to offer the 8 in aus.
Australian know how is far superior IMHO as we build for the long haul drives and hard core and combine the best essence into one.

Some of the best innovations are Australian and far ahead of the yank counterparts...
ever looked at the tech on baja trucks????
Our suspensions are often stronger and more liveable...

American guys (generalisation) tend to space frame everything, install huge over the top motors and huge tyres...
ever been to moab or driven on high traction slickrock where hesitation or broken driveline can send you 200 foot down
Show me a revolution from the yanks? I've seen plenty of evolution no revolution...
coil-overs, real air shocks, claws, swampers, warn
Yanks always suck in the OBC... Their vehicles dont last the distance...
Their engineering doesnt cut it and the set up is often wrong.
and we suck at baja and stadium
This years OBC is no different.

just stiring the pot to see who bites

Sorry to be picky, i'm tired.

Hhahahaha same.

articulation

1541, "the action of bending the joints," from O.Fr. articulation, from M.L. articulationem (nom. articulatio), from articulatus, pp. of articulare "to separate (meat) into joints,"

hahaha although i agree the range of motion of the joints (wishbones, CVs) will be limited, but to a level which restricts the nonlinear transfer of torque, which is a restraint imposed on all 4x4s .

hahahah apologies, im an idiot :P
