I never waste money thats why I purchased the Terracan.

Why pay $20K + more for other 4WD that only perform marginally better than the Terracan.

I suggest you read the following articals 18231 & 18587 and try driving one before you pass judgment

I have done 130,000 in mine and would by another without hesitation.

Now do you know where I might find Diff Lockers.

TerraA1,

Hope mine is as good at 130k as your's.

Love it, great car, very competent in all conditions, including off road.

Ignore johnny, he has no idea. Distasteful comments should be treated with the contempt they deserve.

Anyway, on a more relevant note, try ARB, they may have a locker but I'm not sure.

Cheers,

Jim.

Disregard the last poster. You weren't looking for that type of disrepectful answer.

I personally don't know of any... at least that I've heard spoken about. Not having any experience with Hyundai, I'm not sure what diffs you actually run in one. Are they provided by a third party for Hyundai of are they purpose-made? Try to find out - maybe the manufacturer's name is stamped on them somewhere. If Hyundai use another manufacturer's diffs, then you might be lucky.... and find that something like a Detriot locker might be useable. Am I right in thinking that they are already fitted with an LSD centre - at least on the rear?

Do some research, and good luck.

Thanks for your advice.

I have been told that they run the same drivetrain as the Pajero 3.5 Lt.

I will look under the car in see what markings I can find.

Cheers

From a review in The Australian:
*******************************
"Suspension is an independent torsion bars and double wishbones set-up at the front and a coil sprung live axle at the rear.

That layout that might sound familiar to older model Pajero owners -- with good reason. It's what Mitsubishi used until two years ago. "
*******************************

Shouldn't be too hard then. Wasn't the 2001-2002 Pajero called the NM? In that case, don't ARB do a set of AirLockers for the NM?

No front or rear locker for the NM according to the ARB website however they do have lockers for some model Pajeros. There is a locker application list on their website but best to give them a ring for the latest developments.

Thanks for all the feedback Guys.

I will keep you posted if I confirm a connection between the Terracan and the Pajero drivetrain.

Cheers

Hard to say if it's running the exact diff centre front and rear as the Pajero, Maybe ARB or a diff place would know. ARB do have a front locker for the NM/NP, realeased a few months ago, it's a RD110, it suits most front pajero diffs from 1991 on.
