transfer box mate! Really hard to get a replacement one. There was a design fault as it leaks oil after 100k or so miles and then your buggered. Very hard to get parts for.Even a simple light bulb for the lights had to come from the dealer

Worked on two - windscreen on one, door glass on another - both sacks of shit. Dunno bout it being Merc running gear - it's basically a Pajero/Shogun, but with worse build quality Typical Jap 4x4 "off roader", except that if it was even showed a bit of off road land it would squat down and cry and refuse to carry on
