If u see the rover at stop and go transmissions in groton don't think the lockers r broken, Cuz they worked so well the rear locker Snapped BOTH rear axles clean. So we will b outa commission until like nex Friday :'(cuz the axles r from ENGLAND.

I'll make sure I say hi to it tomorrow evening so it doesn't feel alone. I go to church at Stedfast right next to it and will be there for Wednesday night service.

I saw your defender at the shop, looking good!

I am a land rover guy myself, driving a 72 series III. Why on earth are you getting your shafts from england? there are plenty of places stateside to get them. Did you get upgraded ones at least?

Btw we ordered them from Art at Rovers North, who ordered them from England. Also we didn't not have to pay shipping and they were cheeper than East Coast Rovers and other Auto places. Lastly we got the pro line, not the chromoly because its more expensive to replace the pumpkin or D shaft or t case or even the air lockers.
