Title: Quick Question - Defender Diff, how heavy?
Post by: the invisible dog on May 30, 2006, 18:16:53: Won a 24-spline diff on eBay, to replace the one I broke in Wales last week, and need to get it from Bristol to High Wycombe
Arranging a courier to pick up but they need to know how heavy as it will be over the 20kg norm
Sender has no scales big enough to hand so need an educated guess - any clues anyone?

Bit of video footage here (http://www.kathandphil.co.uk/Pictures/OffRoading/Wales_2006/Wales_2006.wmv) (10Mbyte .wmv)

"Lovely country but could do with a roof!" :lol:

How didthat guy in the red disco end up against the tree in the woodland area? It is a dead straight road :?

and also how did that light weight end up in that water? That was a straight bit of road too. Good recovery practice though :lol:

Once a vehicle had started to wander gravity quickly got hold :oops:
As James mentions, you can never have enough recovery practice ;)

It was all great fun and Wales was gorgeous :)
