My mistake. I sometimes confuse the rugger with a Feroza.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Will you use the same transmission and transfer case? I don't think the stock transmission and transfer case can handle the power and torque of your V8.

I have welded my front differential last year. My feroza have trailed more than 10 times since. It has been to easy medium and difficult trails together with other feroza members of our club. What I could say is that, the welded front performs much better than an open differential. I did it Fozzy ...

Here is the latest addition to my Feroza with: 7,500 winch 4-2-1 extractors 2" wheel spacers on all 4 wheels to increase vehicle stability Fender trimmed to accomodate the 25mm offset wheels and 50mm wheel spacer Fozzy lockers up front. http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh109/landcruiser913 ...

Hello Meece4x4,

Just want to know what eventually happened. Did you weld your front differential? If yes, were you happy?
or regretted you even thought about it? Tia

do torsion bars come on all rockys? Is the nz rocky the same as the Feroza? With IFS in the front? If yes, then the answer to your question is a yes, all Rockys/Ferozas have torsion bars for the front. Btw Why are you asking about Torsion Bars?

my truck is really uneconomical to go 20ks it uses half a tank..........please help There is something very wrong with your vehicle.

now i like that. how do you find the power drain with the 32''s and what vehicle did you take the back out of to seal the cab kind of thinking of doing something like that to mine. and did you space the front diff down at all? what part of the country do you hail from? The power is still okay ...

with a little engineering a surf front diff would fit, then all you have to do is get a ring and pinion kit to change the ratio then buy and install locker Thank you 2Roky, I might as well do that. I am thinking of welding my front differential and if i don't like the ride or the control during 4x4 ...

I run 32" MT on my Feroza with no problem. I did a 2.5" body lift and a 1.5" suspension lift. This way I don't have to crank my torsion bars alot. For the rear, I replaced the shackles with an extended one. I also place a spacer between the upper A arm to minimize camber problems. And I converted it ...

I have given up on finding off the shelf lockers for my feroza, I am thinking of either
a Solid axle swap of a welded front differential. Anybody in this forum have welded
their front differential? I would appreciate your feedback and opinion. tia
