  1. Hi, I bought a replacement kit for my 1985 110 swivel. 
     

    I just got the kit and I’m pre-assembling the bearing based on Some YouTube films.

    The top bearing seams different toen what I see on YouTube. 
     

    this is what I have got.

     

    Two questions:

    1. can I fit the Bush in the housing before fitting it to the car? 
    2. Am I correct that the flat side needs to be positioned towards the Wheel? 
     

    cheers

  2. Working on the LR today and the front diff went without problems but the rear is not. 
     

    If i tighten the pinion  nut the axle.blocks and i can’t move the car. 
     

    it looks like the mud shield hits the diff. 
     

    the old flange did not have the shield. Do i have the wrong part or am I doing something wrong?

    Dear members, 

     

    I’m in the process of replacing the seals behind the drive flange on both front and rear diff. 

    The front is going according to plan but when I took out the rear diff seal it looked different then what I was expecting .

     

    I thought It would be the same as the front one but it has a different size nut (32mm) and the seal looks different to.

     

    For the front I used seal FRC4586G and I thought the rear would be the same.

    Below a picture of what I took out the rear diff. Is this a salsbury axle and should I then use the one Below?

    Many thanks for your help!

  4. Great help thanks. 

     

    I think I was confused as I now have a 200tdi defender engine which replaced the 2,5na. And because I never changed the gearboxes I presumed that the props should be the same....

    Just ordered the FTC3245. 

     

    lets hope that one fits. 

     

    Thanks for your help (and patience....) 

  5. Thanks for the advice. 

    I just checked the parts numbers.  I have a 2.5na stw 110 with the normal lt77 and lt230 (it has a 200tdi but that should not matter right?)

    Can I use the FRC8389?  it says that this is for the 300tdi / td5 models. directly available. 

    the FRC8389 is for the 200tdi but has one 1 delivery time 

     

     

  6. With a bid of luck I managed to get the last bolts of the UJ on the handbrake drum side.  I hammered a 14mm socket on and it worked.

     

    I’m fitting the new UJ on the axle side and I noticed the yoke (spelling??) seems to have a fair bit of wear. It shouldn’t look like this right?

    For now I’m going to fit the new UJ anyway but should it be better to just replace the prop completely?

  7. Not wanting to be the test dummy of a home made reconstruction of the Myth busters test I have started replacing the worn UJ. 

    Yesterday evening I tried to take out the rear prop. The axle side came undone really wel. The handbrake side did not. The nuts are completely trashed. I think the previous owner tried to undo them with the wrong spanner. 

    The worn UJ is the one on the axle side so i just took the prop apart (marked the position) and took out the UJ. It was in really bad shape. It fel apart when i tried to push it out but the play was still minimal. I'm wondering how this can make such a noise while driving. Could anyone explain? 

    And does anybody have a good trick/tip to undo the bolts of the prop on the handbrake side? 

    Thanks again.
