Id recommend stripping down the sherpa box and welding the diff up.

Thanks for those measurements. So 405+580. By the time I get the two coupled together I doubt I could get that under a metre. Might have to look at putting the diff under or over or back to front or something. Ive also got an eye open for a 4x4 transfer case or gearbox thats going cheap. Then just g...

IE; wander out blindly into the darkness armed with a tape measure in your best PJ's. Ive tracked down a bit more info. Got a bit of a h...

Hi folks.

Joined up here as I have a few questions about Subaru parts that I was planning to use for a project I am working on.

I hope nobody is offended by a potential parts pool raider.


Cheers.
