I believe you can add the Stag to this list, but should remove the TR2 and
possibly early TR3. I remember the carrier was strengthened at some point,
including larger bolts for the ring gear, but don't recall offhand exactly
when. Might be when the Mayflower "1/2 floating" axle was changed for the
later "3/4 floating" design with roller bearings at the wheels instead of
ball bearings.
