WJ/G CRD expedition project

[wambo]

I have access to a V8 Quadra Drive so i can get both front and rear Vari Loks BUT a different gear ratio, 3.73 as opposed to the CRD 3.55 so I will have TCU faults probably causing limp mode. After much research it seems an Eaton Truetrac in the rear for $715 off ebay is the best option.

Kool Kool, yeah sounds a drama for ratio changes, Ive just sold the axles from the ford diff so my locker owes me $150 haha heres hoping it works, dimensions seem to add up, will see, not touching it until after the Holland track run next school holidays,
Wambo, just did a run from Albany to Perth and got 9.2L/100 average, great on the open road, easy chops trucks and mongo drivers doin 105kph haha

Ive picked up a new unpainted tracklander roof rack, kings tent and annex ready for the first mission haha

If you want to put the vari-locks in check out this link.
Would get your ratios back close to stock to with the bigger tyres.

Is that fuel consumption calculated or just what the over head display says?

Mine gets about 11L most of the time on stock size tyres.

Thanks

The overhead says 9.5 though lol

Are you sure the Truetrac fits the Dana 44HD in the WJ? I always thought the only options were ARB air-locker, vari-lock, positraction or open.

If the Truetrac fits, I want one!
