    As for the Patrol both front and rear diffs are offset to the r/h side. I&#39;ve found I normally have the leafs drag more than the diffs in a lot of cases.

    I didn&#39;t know that. Must be before the GQs came out. From then on they are centrally mounted at the rear, only the fronts are offset.

    Good to see another Defender driver though.

    Doesn&#39;t it still drag? The Nissan diff is in the centre of the rear axle and the LR diff is offset.

    Paul,
    I meant that I&#39;ve followed Nissans on a couple of occassions and they have a Rangie lookalike diff housing that is a bit higher - maybe less than an inch- than the Salisbury. It tends to clear humps that the Salisbury skids over. The 3" casting on the Salisbury increases the drag.
    Cheers, David

    1. got it home just before.
    2. put a battery in it once we figured out where it went&#33;
    3. tried the starter but its not throwing out by the sound of it.
    4. tow started with the tractor- went first compression over&#33; Keeping in mind that is hasn&#39;t been going for months.
    5. Drove it around the paddock. Man, shes a goer&#33; Pretty quick for a lil diesel&#33;
    6. Tested artic. Pretty good actually.

    Now I&#39;ve got to strip the interior and "tighten" up the body. Things are loose all over. The interior is pretty well stuffed as its been a farm ute. The rear diff linkage bushes are also rooted.

    Once this is all done then I can cut the tray down, get a rwc, do a lift, put on 33&#39;s and all is good, haha&#33; Oh nad the alloy bar will be getting turfed&#33; Its also got drum rears which makes me happy after reading some of the posts&#33;

    Cheers Glen. (So far happy Defender owner- 2 hours&#33
