My son has a Disco 1 front axle with the short stubby drive shaft inside the hub cover/flange.
Does anyone have a link to the correct top swivel pin and shims.
Many thanks.

Thank you, it's slightly different to the example in the pdf, but I should think the top swivel pin is the same.
This maybe unless anyone knows any different.

U have the correct part number.
The shims depending on their thickness, are 751743 or 44 or 45 or 46.

I cant remember if its the top or bottom swivel bearing but one (i think the top) is different because the ABS sensor goes through it, obvnot a factor unless you have ABS

The ABS was fitted/option for the 300 series D, so as the OP has done his research and given a part number confirmed in the attached link we can assume that their post relates to the 200 series.

Well, who would have thought it?
I already have the shims in stock, tiny bit of play in one side. Want to put off the inevitable for a while, if there is any shims on the top pin at the moment.
