Ex Member Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 It should be an AEU2522 if the axle is original. Has a look at the axle serial number. That will tell us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 on the upper face of the longer axle tube, above the horizontal weld line near the breather pipe connections, have a damp rag,good strong light source & wire brush to hand, as they can be hard to find, the serial number should be stamped in to the metal.

Aragorn Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 dont both the 200tdi and everything before it use the same large CV joint? the 300tdi changed to the smaller 32spline one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off Road Toad Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 As already stated, if your axle is original, then you will probably have AEU2522 which is 23 spline on the inner cage and slightly longer than other CV Joints. However this is "probably" as land rover did not conform to any particular year or model. so the only way to be sure is take it out or check the axle number. Steve IT's a good CV and the strongest of the standard land rover genuine parts ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Member Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 dont both the 200tdi and everything before it use the same large CV joint?the 300tdi changed to the smaller 32spline one? No.... In 1992 or so, they changed to 10/32/24.... The worst front axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 fair enough, but that "worst" axle uses the same 32/24 CV that every later landy uses right? so for CV's theres the early AEU2522, something in between, then the 32/24 one used in the axle you mention and all 300tdi's etc?

Ex Member Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Three kinds AFAIK. It is very confusing as different source say different things...... AEU2522, 23/24 RTC6862, 33/24 From 20L48866 RHD, 21L33356 LHS (I thought it was 32 spline, but everyone says 33....) TDJ000010, 32/24, 300TDI and on....
