asimplyfab.life/ At the start of the seventies, Land Rover wanted to break into the North American market with the new Range Rover. And what better way than with an ambitious journey from the top of Alaska to the very tip of the South American continent?

they took the big tyres off because the diffs are weak and they ran out of spares. they might have broke less with smaller tyres but their offroad ability didn't increase they had a pre made track to follow. it was a pr disaster, people got sick, people died, the vehicles broke down and they had to make a road for them with 2 series land roves not to mention it took months with the help of the army. should you put a locker, well you don't have a 4wd if you don't have lockers and you'll break as many axles trying to follow a locked one with open diffs anyway and eventually you have to decide if you avoid anything difficult or upgrade the axles.
