jeff, your thinking of the L8 (men's) thong. been testing it for a while, almost all the bugs are worked out.
ed, your saying what i think but cant translate it properly. the non live axle rovers are within the original Range Rover idea...a refined work truck, much like the cherokee's predecessor. the reality is what we do with these trucks were never intended, but possible. however a non live axle rover would not be wise, fiscally, to try to set it up like our trucks.

Btw, I talked to a guy who made his Borg Warner lockable, actually very easy and not expensive.
remove viscous coupler. Drill 4 holes at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock. Drain jelly. Install 1/2" steel shafts thru holes. Weld shafts. Install viscous coupler. Just don't drive it on pavement.
There has to be a way to replace the VC with an open diff and add an air locking device. What about a limited slip diff with aggressive clutch packs?
