Simon,

Glad you asked - I can't help, but I'm toying with the idea of chucking a 2.88 Jag IRS behind mine (non Indy). I know it's heavy, but I really want the f/d ration. 3.92 is useless.

ATB

Simon

A sierra open diff weighs 20.5kgs, so you must be comparing it to a sierra lsd - are they about 30kgs? Freelander is open i believe, so that would be circa 17kegs. But then theres the lsd unit to add on still. Do you know the exact weight?
