Alright, who has ever heard of someone sucessfully fitting - or even
looking into fitting - free-wheeling hubs to a Syncro? I reckon it'd be
a benefit to anyone (that has already fitted the decoupler of
course) to disengage the front drive altogether so that the diff, prop-
shaft etc aren't even spinning while we're cruising along the highway..
70 series Land Cruisers and the like still use the manual style hubs,
so i was wondering if someone has looked into it? Sounds like it might
be a bit of hard work to me though.. i wonder if the work involved
would outweigh any potential benefit..
As i think about it now though, i think i remember someone mentioning
something about the decoupler not being designed to have the front
end stationary with the rear wheels spinning (for example front in
the air being towed) and that it mightn't put up with it..
Anyway, just wondering if anyone's been through this in their head before?
Cheerio, Sam.
