It's not a fail, it's that I'm really trying to get hold of a 1.211
Otherwise it's a 1.222 which are plentiful, but I've got over a grand to save up for the rear diff before I even need a transfer case so I have time to stick around for one
Was really hoping docs was gonna be 1.211
I think very late 300s had them but it seems really hit and miss
If I want yours doc it's cool I'll just run up the motorway one evening and have a look at your build whilst there so it'll be a double win.
Thanks for taking the time to look for it etc

That reminds me I need to check my rear diff, it may have an LSD built into it already if I'm lucky
Yeah no worries, if you don't want it I'll just put it up on here
Not much going on build wise atm, its been stripped of its 35" tyres too so it looks a little weedy waiting for the 49's to make their way across from Florida

It may and may not, I need to check the tag on the back of it to see or the serial number then look online
but it is the military spec so I would suspect it could do

nope military surplus, buy them with rims and 85% or more tread
The ones I have my eye on are $100 each on a rim, or I may plump up and go for the $500 brand new ones but I prefers to buy 10 rims with 85% tyres as thats far cheaper in the long run plus you get one free

Ok you had me scared then, 44" boggers are like 700 quid each I think
Yeah it'll be like a military truck but without the weight to go with it, the unsprung will be so monstrous it'll drive a bit funny I think, BUT only time will tell
Gonna be one hella brute, think the baby land rover will be a bit small when it's all said and done?

Nah but these are still Michelin XLZ's
I reckon it'll be a bit on the awkward side to drive with all the torque but the idea is to just leave it in crawl gear and let it idle up stuff given that my transfer box is a Dana 300 with a 2.62 low ratio
Gives me a first gear low of 87.49:1 on those tyres

It could actually make a very good rock crawler!
I guess just get it built then run it test it alter it etc...

Yeah definitely, got someone coming over later to give me quotes on the remaining steel I need and the guy with the tyres should be getting back to me today, just need to check that the Rockwell PCD is the same as the Dana 80
btw rockwell axles are awesome!

Mr Noisy I've got a late ish 300.
I'll have a look see for the serial number if you're still looking for a 1.211?
