Personally the cost to me out weigh`s what id get in return compared to a stengthened cdl x pin and that is if you have manual Cdl actuator which i do [wink11]
Im not knocking Ashcrioft gear as im a true believer and user of his stuff [thumbsupbig]
This is just my opinion from another angle which you asked for[bigwhistle]

Thanks Chris, I appreciate your feedback.


I have adjusted my post as I do have the centre difflock fitted https://www.aulro.com/afvb/webkit-fa...6126b/imagegif.

My head and hip pocket is telling me HD cross pin.

But the more I read especially about the back lash issue the more I want a ATB. https://www.aulro.com/afvb/webkit-fa...da08f/imagegif

My options may be already set out for me as the Ashcroft sight is out of stock on the ATB's at the moment.https://www.aulro.com/afvb/webkit-fa...f876d/imagegif

100% ATB. The backlash reduction isn't the only plus. Incredible strength, and most noticeable the handling on high speed dirt is excellent 😎😎.

ATB all the way☺

Well I have sent an email to Ashcroft's requesting quotation with the ATB[bigwhistle]

will now have to wait and see hopefully I will recover a reply on Monday.

Cheers, Chris

Chris (4runnernomore), the ATB centres are relatively easy to fit yourself. I have one already installed, and another on the bench waiting - you want to see one 'live'?

I can also show you a standard centre diff with broken pins, and the Ashcroft solid pin - put those two items together beside an ATB and the decision should not be too difficult[bigsmile1]

Don't forget that buying from AUS you don't have to pay the VAT, save 20% on the price I think....

Fantastic to hear, I've got a tricked up one with the ATB from ashcroft sitting on the garage floor waiting to go in

i took a punt with it thinking has to be better than the original I fried

and I must also give a big thumbs up to Ashcroft as they were very patient with my zillion questions before I laid the money down. I now own the most heavy duty one they build and It arrived a bit over a fortnight later from the UK to my door

Thats service

Chris

i got one from them with every conceivable extra I could get them to add on and I think it cost $500-00 more for them to build and send from the UK that I could buy a second hand one from a well known wrecker here in Adelaide.

I cannot recommend them highly enough

Blythe

Well for better or worse I have confirmed and paid for a new gearbox and transfer with HD bearings, sleeved casing and ATB. [thumbsupbig]

the old plastic just melted [bigwhistle].

I am hoping once the order is ready for dispatch. I will receive a partial refund as the postage came up a lot dearer than the quote via email. No discount on the items, they were at website price. [bigsad]

Now the waiting game begins :bat:

cheers Chris

Hi Blitz,
so apart for allowing the government and their agencies taking their cut is there anyone else I need to notify or will they all contact me direct?.

cheers Chirs
