In the process of my 1985 90 rebuild I'm upgrading the brakes, intending to fit a discovery mk1 rear axle to get the discs.
I've stripped both axles and find that the 90 has fully floating half shafts whereas the discovery has fixed drive flanges, I've swopped the diffs and the 90 shafts now fit the axle but obviously I need drive flanges to fit. The 90 ones seem to have very slightly different hole centres to the discovery hubs, Discovery front flanges fit but are much shallower. Does anyone know what flanges I need ? Maybe defender 200 or 300 tdi ones ?
