John, I through they did not put the viscous coupling in a 4 speed manual box? I know there something in there as it will drive with the front prop removed. My RRC was assembled in South Africa from a kit.

I will take it down to LEGS tomorrow to get told whats wrong and how much to fix. I might just change the compleat box for now.

johnniep:
no, in the transferbox, im not sure, since it was assembled froma kit it may have been a choice of several bits?!?!?

cheers

<Expletive deleted>,you have a dead rare box

my dad had one & it blew up & he fitted a standard box,what age exactly of rangie do you have??

if its 71-72 it prob will have a LSD for the centre diff,

if its a 85-onwards manual/auto it might have a borgwarner Tbox which has a viscous coupling

johnniep:
ahhh, i did have a lsd in the center diff in one of mine! that was a 71, but i ripped it appart in the woods and replaced it with a new one,they have a series of plates to fill up where the lsd went,
i see where your comeing from, didnt they stop it because it was costing too much? and it did work very well, untill it selfdestructed!!
cheers

paul_humphreys:
Its a 1980 but as I said it was put togeather in South Africa, so it could be anything in there. I do know it will drive with no front prop on as when the UJs on the front prop were done it was driven around with just the back prop on. So something must be locking the diff?
