There was a fellow here years ago that made a 4WD 300TD using a Nissan pickup chassis. As I recall, part of the reason he choose Nissan running gear is the divorced transfer case - which means he was using the Mercedes transmission. I'm remembering he was pleased with the result, despite grief from the purists. *smiles* Nope. Still can't remember his name... _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.
