Norbie your right the W58 I think would solve my problems but from what Rod was saying they don't bolt up. They have a completely different Bolt pattern to any other W box. So I'd have to find a W58 with a M bell housing. Possible??? Cheap???? So what Dad and I have come up with is to change the diff ratio to say 3.5 or 3.7. To do this initially and cheaply I'm going to remove the AIM diff from under dad's car, but put the lower holden ratio in change the tail shaft flange and just do the swap it from the Sedan to my wagon. That is the whole Rear axle assembly due to the different diffs and axles Permanently my solution is (when I get the funds) is to build up a hilux hybrid diff. From what I've been told the 4WD Hilux front diff is a F series Diff, ratio's are available to change the ratio down to 3.55 or I think there is a 3.7 its just coming up with the cash. With changing the diff ratio I know I'll loose some acceleration but I'll save a bit of cash on fuel with the lower reving 5. Also I'm hoping that the taller ratio brings the engine back into its talk curve at particular speeds and the car will actually pull up hills better??? Also I've got a 7MGE to bolt in so It should have more torque to drive the taller ratio. Thoughts would most appreciated GT and Norbie from your wealths of experience.
