Your southern education is showing again! The word "easy" is nowhere in that post. I said basic. b-a-s-i-c. Read that as slowly as you need to, I know it has a whole two syllables. I might be the novice, but most of my wheeling is done with jeeps, so I learned really early the basics. And because I was a mechanic for a while, I'm the first guy to volunteer to get under everyone else's trucks to help get them back to the trailers. It's called having mutual respect for the people you wheel with. Too bad you haven't even learned that basic rule yet.

There you go again. Try and knock someone else down because you're such a lowlife. Sorry, but I really don't have the time to discuss what an ignorant ass you are. There's just so many hours in a day. But I can be persuaded.

What did you expect with suggesting that you weld up a diff in a Rangie. There is a lot more weight and usually bigger tyres which makes the tyres losing traction a lot harder. If the tyres are not going to break traction, then something else has to break.

I also find it strange that people are talking about locking hubs. This is not a Jeep forum.

If you break an axle in anything prior to a D2, you disconnect the prop shaft and pull the axles in the end that is broken or remove the drive flanges. You don't want the diff turning while you drive it home as the broken bits can stuff the diff. If you break a CV, you must remove it before attempting to drive it home.

this is what i find most entertaining about our discussions. sooner or later blood gets in the water and the frenzy begins.

The point being lost here is that you are comparing your short wheelbase part time 4 wd like a sammy to a LWB full time 4 wheel drive. a Detroit is much more "invisible" in the back of a rangie or disco. I ran a detroit in the back of my Series coiler for a while and found it was not troublesome. Key is stay on or off the throttle in turns, don't release it half way through or the locker releases and you get the rear end jump you describe. I now run dual ARBs.

Something funny just happened. My brother in law just decided to Lincoln Lock his Rangie. Its a toy and he wants to give it a go. I told him what I thought but he is going to do it anyway. Mud's pretty forgiving but I got a feeling it wont last long with TSL 33X13.5s! To each his own, I hate breaking on the trail because I cut corners. Just my 2 cents and Kevin I cant wait to join you in the hybrid "club", getting closer. Gordo
