There is not a general topic discussion forum on this site so I have been posting my questions here.

Seems like the only difference is that the L185 has final drives with bull gears in external housings located at the ends of the axle housings. The L175 has the bull gears inside the differential housing. The only advantage would be that the L185 would have a bit more ground clearance. Correct me if I am wrong because I am drawing my conclusions from looking at pics of L175 on the internet.

Are there other differences between these models which seem to share the same engine and tin.
