Well I don't know your vehicle either, though I do know your engine ( one of mercs best and if, like the Musso a mechanical injection pump so much the better).
My two penneth is better the devil you know. That is to say - if you have known your car for a few years, have used it, and pushed it maybe, then it may well be preferable to an unknown quantity -I wouldn't set off in a new car from the showroom let alone a second hand 4x4 that has lived in Chelsea or one that is modded to undriveability by the PO. Key to your success is driving within you and your cars capabilities. 40 year old Renault 4s regularly drive the roads you will encounter and they don't have difflocs  (nor do many vehicles for that matter).
