Thanks again Wilky
Looking at the charts, seems our mates over the pond are right regarding Dana 44 and Isuzu Corp.
One of the planet guys is willing to sale me an open carrier so I reckon it will be worth taking a chance for the money involved. Regarding the ring gear, I picked the following info from the chart:
8.66"
(comparable to 8.5" diameter Dana44, but aprox 1/2" thicker)
So hoping it will come together as a plan.
Incidently if anybody is after a rear locker, the price involved is $399 to a USA address, $485 posted to a mainland UK address.
I'm hoping to be able to utilise an American postal address via a mate's relatives - should be more alot more cost effective especially when they finally arrive in the UK. Could possible stretch it to a second set - they should have enough stock - but be quick because I want to order tomorrow. |

|
|
there is an ARB available for early and late models ( and a Chinese copy of the RD44 model )
recap :
ARB RD44 - fits the 87-95's w/ 1.32" 26 spline axles
ARB RD85 - fits the 1998 and later w/ 1.50" 23 spline axles
so early axles are:
more common
narrower: 56" +/-
smaller shafts BUT....higher spline count
ring gear roughly sized like a Dana 44
gears: 4.56, 4.77. 5.38
later axles 1998 onwards :
a little wider track ( a good thing )
little bigger brakes ( a good thing )
larger shafts, BUT lower spline count
Larger ring gear - roughly like a 60
gears: 4.30's and 5.38's from a company in Iceland ( no longer made ) _________________ White Trooper SWB 2003 (commercial) |
