As Grant says.... on a 4.2 diesel with 6 of the best ( cylinders) and a 22:1 compression ratio, I am not even convinced that in 5th gear you will get that wheel to spin.

Russ, you are clearly built like a brick shhhhhhhhhhouse to push the Patrol even on a flat surface.... :surprised: :surprised: :surprised:

From now on Russ shall now be known as Russ Schwarzenegger.....

Hasta la vista baby
:rolling: :rolling: :rolling:

OB1 wrote:Saltman it should work on permanent 4x4 as long as no diffs are locked. The permanent 4x4 has a diff mechanism between the wheels as well as one in the center. That is why my Defender is all out of ideas with one wheel in the air, center diff unlocked.

I should have tested it yesterday when I was bored.
Quite correct.

Doesn't work on an auto-box AFAIK.
