craig Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 hi mate has a 90 which has a blown diff. gave him a 10 spline but he needed 24, he has sourced a 24 spline diff but the diff does not have a thinner section on the side holes so the 4 bolts that hold the sides are not long enough, is it just a case of taking the studs out of the axle and fitting longer ones? are the studs screwed in or pressed? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwcooper Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Was the donor diff taken from a 90/110 or Disco 1/RRC.....The diffs are all the same from these vehicles I cant see why it wont fit if it was. Have you got any photos? Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 not sure but think he said a later 300 disco but cant be certain, its the same apart from the diff casing does not go thinner where the side bolts on, havent actually seen it yet but need it sorted as i need a tow.....

Retroanaconda Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Difference between metric and imperial diffs? IIRC one had differing stud lengths and one had them all the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 do you know if the studs are screwed in or pressed like wheel studs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 get big hammer Remove diff Where the short studs are bang with hammer, they are pressed in on a splined fit Find new LONG Bolts, shove in holes, place a large number of washers on the other side, shove Nyloc over the lot and then do up, this will wind the stud in onto the splines hen fit diff Job Done Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
