$630??? I was going to give you $650!!!, I guess with interest it's now $700...

I'll work on finding a home for the Maxi then?

JC

Technically speaking, it was $630 to MY door, $650 to yours

Unfortunately for me, to buy a 30 or 35 spline detroit its over 1k at the moment, feel yourself lucky you got that one, cause the price is the same, for a replacement of the one I give you

35spline Selectable.....

why settle for anything else.

Be interesting what the out come is here as I need to lock the Sals in my 120 and have a spare 110 sals to go in my 4.4 Tractor tyred Rangie. I'm thinking CIG for the Rangie as its 100% off road now

Hey Tony, how the hell did you dig this up? I was just looking at it..

I'm thinking, Detroit and 30 splines, for 2 reasons, ease of set up and I don;t really wanna run different bearings front to rear and custom stubs, cause if a stub fails, its a 1 off unit and not easily/quickly sourced

Having a mate invite me to do the Gibb River road in August has prompted some serious thought about reliability

User CP.... I like the sals even though they're a grader blade

I want to lock my 120 and thinking esylocker. Have a ARB out of the Disco for the front. A mate of mine here has a 454 Chev blazer on 44's with Detroited Dana 60 and it is tough as. You won't break it with the 4BD1. It would screw the uni out 1st. Bit nasty if you floor it on a wet round about though in 2wd

Yea, I'm still undecided on selectable or not, so its either 30 splines and detroit through Keith or 30 splines and selectable via Jeff....Mmmmmmm

Would like to build the 35 spliner, but don;t think I'll need the strength and as above the downsides

I have never broken a sals here. Not even with a turboed 202 in a series 3. They are a bloody strong diff as you know even in standard dress.
I'd back 30 spline for a Rangie... If you do something radical enough to smash the 30 spline your front end will be in splinters anyway.
