That's very interesting.  the Maxat ABS system and FF 4WD conversion were being developed together in the late 60's by TRRL for the Ford Zephyr 6 station wagon, to be used by the police as a fast intercept patrol car.  The project was killed off in 1970 by the introduction of.......


....Range Rover :D  an off-the-shelf station wagon capable of 100mph with 4wd and good handling.

Very interesting haven't seen a Schuler Presses transmission for years.  Alvin Smith (multiple AWDC champion) always used to race with them in his Range Rover and RR specials. (Pic of his RR on site above!)

Very sophisticated for its time and by all accounts strong too.  I like the look of the torque split myself.  I had a Sierra 4x4 with a viscous centre and a 66:44 torque split and that handled very nicely on the throttle.

I have a viscous in the racer now, but with std LR 50:50 split.  Would be interesting to try a rearward bias!

Henry Webster:
Why not try it in the racer! :lol:
