Not yet unfortunately, have had a bit of a delay with helping a sick neighbour get his house ready for sale and last week decided to buy new rotors and brake hoses which have arrived so will get stuck into it over the next 2 weeks. BTW I discovered the radius arm bushes are the shorter ones (NTC1774), same as the standard diff - not what the manual says!
No Rover diff can be described as "indestructible". Mythbusters may have shown that with enough time and effort you can indeed polish a turd, but there are limits.
Chief - how much power and torque you have is less important than the size of tyres you will be running???
That's a nice looking diff there bearman I will ask my mate that works at a local army base workshop see what he can find ....
Im running 35's at the moment but in the future am planning at least 37's maybe 42's one day in the distant future :angel: I am planing on gearbox to let go before diffs do anyways :(
It's a never ending story !!!
While you're looking at reinforcing the housing, KAM have a new kit for a std axle

not sure when it'll be available but L8 have posted about it's release about a week ago on FB. They also have a toyo axle kit upgrade as well and a variety of bits and bobs. Might be worth just looking at their listings to get some ideas of what's been done.
That looks nice with those speed holes in it :D isuzurover's is pretty much the same ...isuzurover can you plz post up some of your photos of your diff that you modified so everyone can see ?
Although a set of rockwells could solve all these problems ...
Check this out ...Stage 12
OK - well if you are serious with 37-42" and plan to use it seriously offroad then you will need 35spl D60 or better F+R.

The diff pan is a butt weld pipe cap which is >8mm thick and adds a LOT of strength in addition to the bracing.
Are KAM still in business???
Their option eats up clearance, would foul an ISUZU sump, and looks like it forces you to use their crappy locker (or at least their diff pan).
