thanks! that is stuff to think about. No detroitlocker yet for me, by arb you mean the manual lockers?

I am in the running for a new ®overdrive and because of the waiting (over one year now) thinking of leaving the overdrive out -what if there is a problem with the drive and you'll have to wait years for spares-; but does anyone has experience with this roverdrive, are they build to last or trouble makers?

As the topic starter, I was advised not to use polybushes. Because I am doing a complete rebuild of my landrover I still have the option to use the polybushes I got from bearmach. So my question is what would you guys do; put them in or leave them out; or maybe the bearmach bushes -see photo- are carp anyway (like the replacement frontdoors)? oh, since I saw these nice photos of the b-frame; is it normal to have them welded to the sill?

Well, I'll give it a try with the tyre levers. As for the detroit locker, maybe you can talk me out of it as they are not mounted yet. What influence do they have on driveability, unnecessary lockup? I also got one for the frontaxle, truetrac not recommended either I think... And from IMO which diff is recommended?

How did you made the rounded part of that pillar?

Hi! I am new on this forum and found already a lot of interesting stuff (like changing to brakes with disks). About a two years ago I bought a UK 109' stationwagon and well it was a mess and now I am gatering everything to start rebuilding my 109. Now to the topic; once I get a replacement for my completely rusted and leaky salisbury (rear)axle I would like to upgrade the differential with a detroit locker, therefore I need to remove the old diff with an axle-spreader-tool; does anyone know where to buy it or has anyone the specs to make one? Same for the drivepinion. And ofcourse any advice on replacing a diff and 'do' things while you are at are welcome! thanks. ciao, maarten
