You would have to get them sent over on a boat these days. Seems to be a few around in Malaysia by the looks of some 4X4s over there.

AFAIK, Malaysia has been pretty much cleaned out of readily available Volvo portals in the desirable 6:1 ratio for several years now.

Bugger I had hope for a wile. The Mog conversion is all to hard for me

Has anyone ever tried the marks 4x4 adapters Nissan portals on a RRC?
I understand you would end up around $20k after install and diff purchase

Would Volvo be the go? if so where would one start to find them these days?What could one expect to pay for a set of Volvo's?

Trailcraft,in Sydney used to do some unimog mods I've heard, but i understand Volvo's are the go due to suitability.

Has anyone ever thought of making them
The rears look possible, but the fronts might be abit tricky
