Thats why I use this softer homemade solution and here are the...

    Nice to know the 5 vs 3 main bearing answer, I had it as a question since I saw a post here about it How do you recognise it ? Also by "rear power take off" do you mean that when the landy is on 2x4 mode it moves through the rear ?
