whats wrong with the viscous ,you dont need diff lock,as both axles are already locked trough viscous coupling,

My MY87 is a manual difflock.

I think it was 1986, go to RR.net and there is a section there giving all the changes year by year

sorry imisread when for why ,i thought they where fitted from 1989 onwards and like all the bleeping you get on them now because of the yanks

viscous good off road!!

I thought the viscous came in either 1989 or with the 1991 facelift, cant remember which? Mine's a 1991 and has the viscous coupling. Fett, does your 1990??

SpudH · Feb 1, 2011

I just looked it up, it was 1989

fett · Feb 2, 2011

hence mine having it

I like it but will have to get used to manual diff lock on the 72 when off roading!

1989.
