Didn't realise you knew Robin - aint he a nutter?! Mate of mine used to go to school with him - apparently a normal crosser was never fast enough for him so he'd put big road bike engines in

 

Oh and that white TD5 apparently puts out some stupid power (over 200 BHP I've heard!)

 

A bonkers landy for a bonkers bloke!

Anyone for a bit of a basket case,....err I mean project:001_unsure:

 

Satisfy your masochistic desires, learn to weld rust back into steel and sort out those “unclimbable” trees all in one go.

 

Enjoy

Blowing up diffs is usually through abuse, thats all, and that level of abuse is usually served to company owned vehicles where the driver(s) dont have to foot the repair bill.

 

From what I can understand regarding diffs, if they are not set up spot on when new they will fail prematurely.

 

So I would imagine this one was not right from new.

I don't know if it's physically possible, but for your owners lacking a centre difflock perhaps you could fit the viscous system from a Rangerover, it detects when the front or rear is spinning and automatically "soft" locks the centre diff, it transfers more power to the non-spinning axle depending on the speed difference between the two axles, and you can't forget to turn it off afterwards.
