The Lobros are more convenient for doing gaters etc. in my opinion.

The disadvantage is that the shafts are much heavier than the drum/tripode type.

Stronger but heavier. Also, unless you're very lucky, you'll destroy your T40 torx bit(s) undoing the bolts before giving up and using a chisel. No choice if you want the LSD though.

There's 24 T40s in total.

Don't even think of wasting time undoing them- just grind 'em off and replace with socket head caps.

HTH,
James

We got our's out - soak em in WD40 or other penetrating oil overnight. Get a good quality torq driver other wise you'll shear the tool and f*ck the head up! We found after soaking them that a sharp crack with a hammer cracks the thread off, makes it slightly easier. We failed on one and ended up grinding it off.
