    I couldn’t get in earlier. But some of those responses are very similar to what we have seen here. A guy who has done it to 3 different vehicles with 3 posts 🤔. Gear ratio charts (posted here) got a different response. Fuel consumption...

    Hang on - will check my spare heater box in the garage. Levers fully towards driver, air goes through the heater matrix. Fully towards engine cooled air bypasses matrix.

    It's simply not gramatically correct, so the sentence does not mean anything. The intent might be correct, so write it properly, or do what other non natives do and appologise for their English upfront.

    No you wouldn’t because it’s not the same bolts in the rear diff as the front. So your idea of ridiculous seems like you would be left on the side of the road to me. J

    There is only 1 output shaft from any gearbox. They change to 4wd drive with that fancy thing called a transfer box. There are many auto boxes used in 2 or 4 wd format. Your arguments show you shouldn’t be allowed to pickup a spanner. J

    It could leave you on the side of the road trying to change your diffs on a car that you need, so I feel it is quite relevant. Not that you ever did start having any technical discussion. J

    Clearly you are rather over sensitive to anything contrary to what you think you know. Most of the comments early in this thread were why it might not be a good idea. You took them as direct critisim rather than answer in a technical manner...
