On every subspace of $l_{\infty }(\mathbb N)$ which contains an uncountable $\omega $-independent set, we construct equivalent norms whose Banach-Mazur distance is as large as required. Under Martin's Maximum Axiom (MM), it follows that the Banach-Mazur diameter of the set of equivalent norms on every infinite-dimensional subspace of $l_{\infty }(\mathbb N)$ is infinite. This provides a partial answer to a question asked by Johnson and Odell.
