Toyota jumping on the Torsen bandwagon....

[Pantelis Giamarellos]

Actually Quaife (which is similar in function and design as the TorSen) has
been offering a center diff  for the Defender, Discovery and early first
generation RaRos for a number of years now.

A really worthy option for someone who had to replace the gears inside his
LT230 center diff.

Take care
Pantelis
