ZJ or XJ

<< < (2/3) > >>

Bishops Finger:
Think the D35 may not be quite strong enough for ZG

dxmedia:
Where do they break?  And more to the point, is this from the states where dropping a spinning wheel onto rock and then complaining that the axle is weak not crap driving style is the problem?  35mm of steel shaft is going to take some breaking either way I'd have though? (that is why it's a dana 35 isn't it?)

Is it just the halfshaft spinning off landrover style?

I'm from a isuzu background, and broken axles just don't happen, oh and the mog, that's got something like the equilivent of a dana90 or something stupid.

Bearings in the diff go rather than snapping anything

dxmedia:
I thought that was a dana issue with the shells on the bearings not in inherent issue with the weight of a ZJ over and XJ (which really is only a fat macca in the seat)

Could be more fat macca's in the seats of ZJ's though :lol: :lol: :lol:

Diff is the same on both XJ & ZJ - the ZJ goes so much more - so make your own mind up :D
