Taking some weight off ARN-202487 6x6 cargo

Hey Badco, I used the ones from Ashcrofts. They bolted straight on. only problem I have had with them is oil leaks on the inner part that rotates when you select 4x4. Fixed that with a slightly thicker O ring.

Thanks for the info Brian, I also had oil dripping on my nice new tyres, Replaced the very flimzzy O rings on the FWHs. Now alls good..
Thanks again..
CU at the end of the month there abouts ...

Hi Peter, The hubs I got were to small in the cup that fits over the Salsbury axel so I had to make spacers from the axel drive flanges so they could be used. They are fine now...
Bob...

Thanks Bob
I wanted to know the part number so I knew which ones to avoid. AVM list three models for the Salisbury diff.

Peter Ive looked all over the box they came in and carnt see any ID# . All I looked at was 24 spline and 5 bolt on studs, but thats was my undoing.. Didnt say anything about wanting it for a rear salisbury diff. They may have thought I was gargar wanting them for a rear diff...
Im on the track for a set from Ashcrofts in the UK. Just waiting for them to arrive .
Will let you know how they shape up..Bob..

My gearbox hose came today, I changed the oils in the diffs and gearbox n transfercase the other day and the gearbox was way over full. The transfer case was well down.  Daryl from WA ( he has 2 6x6 ) sent me a made up pipe that returns the oil back to the transfercase  from the gear box.. Thank you Daryl.

Hi All, Well flying from the UK must be easier than from the US ,as the FWHs turned up today. Suprise suprise they are made by the same mob, The Perentie ones came vir Ashcrofts UK..
Ok Peter the ones you need for the 6x6 are the ones on the right.. You dont need the conversion kit ,thats a thingo that replaces the diff. in the gearbox, with the FWH on the front = 2wd ..
Hope this helps... Bob..

Thanks Bob, Great that you got to meet Sam. He's just bought a RFSV from the AWOL auction so now has 3. I'm jealous but can only afford 1 sadly.
