    prop shaft angle, and the gears are driving on the coast side of the tooth. While this is also the case for the stock rover type diff, I believe it worse on the ford 9 due to tooth shape/design.

    Reviving this thread as I finally have a need to upgrade my built rover front diff.
    I need strength, more steering and a slightly wider track.

    But I also need clearance. As the only thing that stops Fluffy is when it comes into hard contact with the ground.

    How do I acheive this!?

    I'd love portals. But the car would need some mods the get the overall height down.
    I'm also not 100% sure the front superflex arms will be adequate for all aspect of onroad driving with portals.

    Cheers Mick. The forest rover is cool but not at all practical

    I want to advance in axle tech not interested in a sals diff at all.
    Tyres are 37s and eventually 40s (offroad only)
    Gearing is 4.11 atm but want to go back to 3.5 or there abouts.
