glad you like it,

Does that mean I can have a £20-30 credit Dave?!?!?!?

Yes, actuated by same pressures - small ARB compressor and ARB 70 - 100psi solenoid (from memory) is fine.

Fitted one on the weekend to my 85 Rangie, put some 24 spline axles in at the same time. Very nice machining. Took it for a play and seems to work (well didn't get stuck)

Thanks Dave.

errgh? does the lack of response mean there is no sals version available? Or did I miss it?
cheers Gerald

There is no sals version. Dave/Ian have not mentioned if they plan to make one or not.

Is the Getrag any stronger than the R380 Suffix L Dave ?

Or are you doing it as it has better ratios ?
