Interesting, because I thought about pegging them. I asked crown-diffs about it when I ordered them and he said those carriers would do 300hp okay and I was running the 3.5 RV8. That will really make them tough
The beast is on so many trucks. Mirror is on a John Deere gator down the road. Big yellow tow hook is on a Mitsubishi 4x4 a bit further down the road. It lives on
I have had them chip the crown abd pinion thats why I'm doing them

My nightime reading has served me well then
although reading back he did say he was doing it in the previous post
Is there an issue with that much weld in one area on the casing with the heat from the weld? It looks a pretty strong area to start with, not alot can move i guess
It's welded in very small passes to stop the heat build up and colling effect cracking the welded the large width welds are to help with surface contact as with cast if its hard to get good adhesion due to the Granular structure its my first attempt at one
The lockers and casses are @Team Idris old axles
so is my rear winch

A 14cc gear pump mounted on an electromagnetic clutch, rated to 5000rpm so should be fine when driven by the serpentine belt of the V8. I just hope the bigger pump doesn't cause slippage under low revs/high load conditions. Luckily pumps are cheap and easy to swap as long as you stay in the same group.
I ran my 26cc on off the aux belt in td5 yiu make a back plate with 2 rollers close together so the belt is wrapped all the way around the pulley to maximise the contact pick up it didn't slip at all even when wet only moved it to crank as was bit to geared up
