It was a good set up. The only issue I had was, when driving fast in the RR, there is a technique taught in defensive drive techniques (with Disco/RRC/Defender/series/100 series) of using the lift of the inside front wheel to 'spin off' the power to a point where the vehicle settles back on to all four wheels. This allows a 'slingshot' out of tight bends etc.With LSD's etc this gets quite interesting and can involve the smell of adrenaline filling the vehicle Brown, lumpy adrenaline? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzar Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 If it's adrenaline produced, it's usually quite liquid, but remains brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it? As far as I know, peddling only solves ring gear and carrier movement, preventing the ring gear from being pushed away from the pinion. I can’t see how it stops pinion axis movement at all. That’s where a long, heavy pinion with large and widely space bearings comes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snagger Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 The problems that I have read about of the late 110 axles on a few forums concern the pinion moving away from the ring gear beaches the bearings are too close to keep it straight under load. It doesn’t matter whether the ring or the pinion is the one moving out of mesh - either way, you’ll strip the teeth off. Salisburys don’t do that, and don’t seem to need the ring gear pegging either.
