    That is interesting?? that is the first time i have seen inside a portal, thanks for that. It looks like they change your gearing slightly?? is that so?

    Got to ask also.. Did you fit these when the car was new or did you just respray the diff housing and seriously detail the car before the pics?? bloody clean mate. Looks great.

    The original assemblies fabricated by Mark were 1.4:1, designed with the comps. boys in mind. There is now the option of 1.22:1, which I have. This reduction strengthens the axles, CVs etc. by 20%.The cleanliness is a measure of the care taken by the boys at Mark's. The truck was delivered with 170,000 km on the clock but detailed from caryard.

    what kind of revs are you pulling at 100kms/h? is that ratio 20% taller than standard?

    I didn't realise that they had a ratio alteration built into them as well, i thought they were all about clearance only.

    Nice bit of Kit though.

    .
    My RPM with 315/75x16s is 70 revs. higher than standard. Hub ratio is 1.22:1 as against 1:1 standard, so 20% lower.


    Just checked whilst out driving--2100RPM @ 80 kph and 2600RPM @ 100 kph.

    Thats a Really Really Nice Truck!
    I've read about those portal boxes on marks website.
    I can't wait till we're allowed to import patrols to the states.

    I want the name of the detailer!!! damn that is a clean truck!! looks like it has 100kms on it straight off the boat.. The underside is nuts mate!

    your revs are nearly identical to mine running 35s with 4.6s.

    Love the wheels mate, where did you get them? how much were they? what offset are they? are they steel or alloy?

    Nice Rig.

    Cheers MudRunner
