Re: G60 Build South Africa
We had a problem with serious axle wrap.

Decided to cure it with traction bars. What an improvement under hard acceleration and braking.
On our last dune outing you could feel the u-joint gaps closing on full power. The marks on the propshafts showed that the problem were on both diffs.
