Oh it still has the mystery vibration damper thing that 8000 people asked about on the message boards 20 years ago. A fair number of these front diffs were actually replaced under warranty when the disco 1s were still under 3 years old.

Looking forward to seeing that all cleaned up and reassembled. I wouldn't know a bsf bolt from a unf bolt!

Thank you kindly. Currently building a series 2a v8 auto. Very helpful with rebuilding front diff!

My old Ranger (Mazda bt50) had universal joint greasers on the outside, I put 247k on it and never changed a joint...

I got a few of those laying around in the garden, in worse state than that one :) I might try the rust remover fluid thats Phosphate free, acidic solution and left soaking for a few days, I'm sure it will be pitted to buggery.

Pitting in gears due to rust is never a good thing! Scrap!

If only I’d known you needed diffs…. I have two good units, one of them like brand new, that I have offered for free locally to avoid scrapping them. I would have brought them to you when I dropped by. 😔

@BritannicaRestorations Ай бұрын

No, I do not need them - this was just a small project to see if one diff can be made from two and work again - this will be on my shelf for years to come!

Stripped my 'transfer case'(IRD) on my Freelander just recently...removing the bearing races was 'fun'. Unbeknownst to me a couple had shims in behind them...anyhoo I eventually released the races by either 'Bashing the f3ck' out of them or running a bead of weld around the race...those just fell out afterwards....I have a 'Clarke' bearing puller...have 'used' it several times over the past few years...its poorly named as it hasn't pulled a single bearing out for me as of yet... Do you think that crown wheel is salvageable as that and a matching pinion must have some value etc...can it be saved? Would inteesting how to see how you would go about doing that Mike...

@BritannicaRestorations Ай бұрын

I think the original crown wheel is way too rusty and pitted, but I have a good matching pair out of the diff with the worn carrier

@williamhughes1925 Ай бұрын

Hi Mike great video my D2 carrier is a bit worn, can you buy the carrier, gears and pin separately? Thanks looking forward to part 2

When looking at the LR parts page parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/parts/index/part/id/14.55781.56177.59696/brand/land-rover/ it seems they do not sell the carrier separately and there is no part number However on the LR Defender parts site, there is a carrier available for the later models www.lrworkshop.com/parts/FTC3269 you will have to check the axle number, and I cannot be 100% certain it is the same
