Has anyone bought one of these yet? I tried searching, but came up with nothing.

I came across their website and the prices seem ok with the dollar up atm.

Considering I have been quoted $750 for a second hand T/C case out of Syd and $900 odd for a std recon one out of Cairns.

Not that I would be looking at up-grading things on a shity old Jimny.............. 8O

Who in there right mind would make a Jimny better?

Cheers,

Rob.

Fit a gear driven Sierra transfer.

Standard $150 for a really good one though I've sold a few for about $100

With reduction gears fitted 500-600

Or buy a cheap case and get new gears/ bearings and seals for 900 odd

Sorry, I should have posted a weblink.

http://www.trailtough.com/index.php?pag ... &Itemid=53

Works out to be $1200 ish to my door.

For a few dollars more I get a professionally built T/C with lower gears.

Was just seeing if anyone had bought one.

I pulled a transfer from a mates car yesterday, $150 and it's yours. Installing the gears is really easy, and the instructions are great. I did my HiLux case myself, and I had never seen the inside of a transfer before. Give it a go! Anyway, PM me if you want th case, if not I'll chuck it in the classifieds!

evski,
Thanks for the offer, but its a day late. Mine is in the mail as I type. I ended up hitting the buy button last night after doing the sums. Works out better for me in the long run.

Cheers,

Rob.

No worries Scales. I was sure you did work sometimes....... :thefinger:

The exact price was $1268 with a gearstick and 4WD switch delivered. 4.16 ratio.

Oh, I also got one of those fancy gear knobs as well..... They looked priddy as. ( That was the impulse buy scales ;) )
