I have both behind different 4bd1's. I modded the lt85 by adding a stronger synchro ring pin than standard, as often the originals (and stock replacements) will shear over time. Thankfully the lt85 has been a great box since then. From what I experience driving them each weekly the lt95 does seem a more sturdy/robust box and I have no issues with it whether rolling iver rocks or down an interstate. The way mine are setup I have a bit more revs at the top end with the lt95 than using overdrive on the lt85, but it's not a problem for either. Admittedly I won't drive 140kph even though they are capable......they are rovers and at that speed one needs more considerstion given to braking than gearing.
Scratching my teenage itch now that I'm in my midlife crisis...
