That's a cute ute, Phill.

How did you go with fixing up your Syncro and getting away for the long weekend in the end, Gary? I hope you are enjoying the new suspension. Looking forward to that next step too.

Francesca.

Very tidy indeed Phill. Well done on a great purchase. Will be a great addition to the streets of Port Mac one day in the future

If your new Doka relates to this one the sale would have met the plans of  2 registrar members and made them both happy or am I adding 2+2 and getting 5?
 Nice acquisition either way.
Can you get your photogenic kangaroo back with a joey to stand between your 2 blueys.

Aaron,

If the picture icons are coming through to your email window, it is probably your own email programme that is blocking their opening.  You will need to reset your email rules.

Most of us get the picture attachments in this way without any problem.

No more marsupial photos after last time.
Very nice Phill. Love the Swedish colour scheme in your image. Phil, can you improvise the rear with limited slip diff to this car to improve tractability. A little research that I did on them indicates they bog and skid and lose traction a lot easier than the older T2 twin cabs? Still a nice looking unit.

A manual diff lock was an option and they can be retro-fitted.

That would be because T3s don't have the same rear weight bias as a T2.  The T2 has no radiator, fuel tank, battery or spare wheel up front so the front is light and easy to push up and over obstacles and the rear is heavy and plants the rear wheels for good traction.  This is why a T2 is different to other 2WDs and can approach the offroad capability of a 4WD in many situations.  Of course this weight distribution is less significant if you have 4WD.

Aaron,

Perhaps he wants to take his 2wd further into Syncro territory. One rear slipping and the 2wd will literally spinning it's wheels. With a locking diff, you can "lock" the two wheels so when one wheel slips, there will still be drive on the opposite to hopefully give you forward or backward motion.

Cheers,

BenT

Because you can if you want to. Don't have to....but......you can. As i found out through some research the T3 twin cab is lacks the tractability of the legendary T2 twins. LSD corrects and improves this...... marginally......if you want to. I've even noticed some T2 Campervans fitted with LSD.

There is a guy from Canberra who has an 83 model trakka 2wd who has installed a "Lokka" lockrite diff in his gearbox which is one of those automatic locking diffs.
 
He seems to think it works well enough but now he has bought a syncro and it trying to fit a TDi donk in it last I heard.
 
The syncro is always the best.
