Cristoforo · Sep 25, 2017

Hi all think i know the answer but just want to be sure
Will a Discovery 200 tdi 10 spline FRONT diff fit the REAR axle of my series 3 sorry for caps just wanted it to read clear
Thanks Cris

Yes but you will need to change the front one to match the rear

check you have a oil level/filler in rear case if not you will need to make one

Easy to fill via pulling out the short side 1/2 shaft on a jack stand

thats possible but not as much use as a level/filler plug,which is easier to sort whilst diff is out

Thanks guys
I have access to two front diffs off a 200 tdi discoverys and thought they would fit the rear of the series as well
also have access to defender 200 tdi ones but thought they looked a bit longer maybe if i got them side by side they would be the same

def or disco is the same diff ,diffs fit front and back

Just to clarify....the will fit into a std series diff with its std diff cover...but unless your diff pan has a oil filler you will have to find another way of getting your oil in.

I welded on in...but you could put a measured amount in the vent plug hole.

But it is not much good for keeping a check on the level.

With the rear diff I've recently fitted ( 300tdi ) 24 spline and 24 spline shafts both ends which are now wrong as the diff didn't have a level plug on the diff I took advice from here and before I fitted the last shaft I poured in the correct amount of oil 3 pints then fitted the shaft, obviously now I've got to replace the rear diff and shafts for a Def / Disco 10 spline diff and re-use my old shafts hopefully the 10 spline diff should have a level plug but if not I will fill it the same way as I did with the other

Is it 3 pints in the rear diff for the series ?
