A decoupler by itself will ONLY couple/decouple power to the front diff. if your VC does not work,
then a coupled-decoupler will do you no good.  There is a solid piece that can replace the VC
which can then work with the de-coupler, maybe this is what you have in mind.
for a VC try: http://www.busman.be/pagina43a.html  shipping will cost a bit from europe.  Also
Deric Drew was selling these at one time, I'm not sure of his current e-address.  malcolm
