Maxi drive do the bits: drive members and some bushes then you can fit AEU2522's the drive members are over height to accomodate the extra CV length. The 32 pline CV's are approx a 3rd smaller in overall size.

24spline diffs f/r rear either one piece halfshafts or 24 spline either end with seperate drive members CV's 32 splilne Ppoor small. drive members 24 spline half shafts 24/32 spline they're tiny in comparison to Aue2522 CV's

Nick that was fuggin ugly

don't try this at home kids

here's a good one and one of the car

this sort of thing?

Devon 4x4 are selling them

Yes Nick the names will rtn, this is the new hosting site you( the donators) have paid for. Lr90 Trev did the swap over last week the niceties are to follow

The site is now in its new home and will remain fully independant. Donations for hosting running costs welcomed to: treasurer@lr4x4.com via Paypal or chq's to the treasurer ct white90 for address using a PM please

mine keeps dropping out every min or so the DSL light on the modem goes out or flashes, then I have to reconnect. to say it is annoying is the understatment of the year....

nige the set up articulates very well. now Stephen has given my set up away.....

twin XP motor set up from Outerlimits

6hp XP motor fitted with a gearbox breather added, motor is allowed to breath via a hole drilled in the gearbox housing between the motor and the ali casing. (pic courtesy of Peter Graves) Allbright Solenoid pack mounted on a defender inner wing. Robhybrids set up spec: HI I have fitted a mountain bike disk brake on mine but as yet havent managed to sort a strong enough solenoid to activate the caliper. I have also mounted the disk in a different place to stop heat transfer and here the disk spins faster giving a better braking action. The bracket for the disc also servs a function in preventing the circlip from jumping off. sorry the pic isnt very clear but you get the idea. Paul Wightmans version highly modified, spec: Slightly modified, Bowmotor 1 24volt Up rated brake shaft (gigglepin) Longer drum with 2” dia centre Oil drain and filler plugs Disc brake on drum end Reasons, Bowmotor 1. Nothing to touch it! Reliable, cool running, powerful – no exaggeration of HP, easily obtainable spares and reasonable priced. Up rated brake shaft. When an 8274 is up rated the brake shaft is the weak link, the groove where the retaining plate locates is prone to breaking. The new shaft has no groove and is located by a different method. Unreasonably priced but there is no other option! (Sorry Jim) Oil drain and filler plugs. With changing the oil being such a pain normally no one bothers, I can change the oil with ease! Drum mods. Smaller dia drum means higher pulling power (about 20%) but with a reduction in speed (which the 8274 can afford). Coupled with the increase in width means I can use 150’ of 11mm Dyneema and still have plenty of room to bunch the rope during side pulls. Disc brake. This is the main reason I feel I can go back to the 8274 and feel safe lowering down steep slopes. The brake is from a moped, hydraulic, and calculations by others (if it don’t work it’s not my fault!) suggest it should be capable of holding the drum with the full weight if the vehicle on the rope. I look on is as a means of assisting the original brake under extreme conditions and a backup if the standard brake, motor or gear train should fail. 12" wide with 2"dia drum and a fancy bit on the end! Piggy has a disc handbrake which consists of an Alfa 164 rear calliper which uses the clutch master cylinder (redundant since Piggy went auto) to adjust the pad gap using a shortened clutch pedal. I’ve fitted a tee off the pipe from the master cylinder to the calliper and run this to the winch brake calliper. If I want to adjust the handbrake the winch brake operates, no problem. If I want to brake the winch I am lowering down a steep slope so a bit of handbrake won’t hurt! bracing bar to support XP motors additional weight

some shaft numbers SPLINE SIZES & TOOTH COUNTS 10 SPLINE: Used for axle shaft to diff side gear in ROVER Type diffs from the first L/R in 1948 to app 1992. Also used in L/R series 1 & 11 vehicles at drive flange and early R/R & Disco CV joints. Square form (40 o included angle) Major dia 28.2 (1.11") Root dia 25.3 (.997") Zp ( polar section) .212 App torque capability for axle of 1500 Mpa UTS Hytuf 5635 Nm (4160 ft lbs) 24 SPLINE: Commonly referred to as "Salisbury" spline as it first came into rover use in the Salisbury diff fitted to series 111 long wheel base. Also used at drive flange on series 111 onwards. From app 1994 the Rover Type diff also uses this spline in the side gear although this gear is about .004" tighter than the Salisbury diff gear. The side gear spline in all Maxi-Drive 24 spline diffs is also the same as the Salisbury. (Why Rover decided to depart from industry standard and make the Rover diff tighter is anyone's guess) Involute form, flat root side fit, 20/40 DP, 30 o PA, Major dia 31.4 (1.24") Root dia 29.2 (1.15") Zp (polar section) .294 App torque capability for axle of 1500 Mpa UTS Hytuf 7835 Nm (5780 ft lbs) 23 SPLINE: Only used as the inner axle to CV connection on the three decent CV joints, namely R606665 R/R ; AEU1828 stage one 111 and AEU2522 early county Involute form, flat root, side fit 20/40 DP, 30 o PA, Major dia. 30.1 (1.18") Root dia 27.9 (1.10") Zp (polar section) .281 App torque capacity of axle of 1500 Mpa UTS Hytuf 7450 Nm (5500 ft lbs) this info supplied by Mal storey of Maxi drive

90 rears will bring the front back level after a winch is fitted. but better still fit some aftermmarket ones!(never miss a chance for upgrade) my latest choice has been the best so far handles really well sits level and carries the load fine.

call exeter4x4 ask Alistair 01392445262 he'll help.

can you put Nick and I down as and when you arrange it PS the Club membership is fine by me.

Fit a TDI prob solved

John get a decent allen key I used an allen key "bit" that fitted perfectly the bolts came undone pretty easily, mine was done cold BTW

Nige any dates as yet?

these show the alterations I made to the supplied unit

I'm led to believe you'll damage the diff if and when they break.

James Mike had his done by a bloke in Street I have his number if you want it, just a chip no intercooler his goes very well.

didn't check the water depth first I guess?

well that's only 100KG heavier than mine. with a Diesel lump in place of the all Alloy V8 similar set up otherwise. fully loaded inc ground anchor/spares etc. which account for 150kg altogether
