Well mark, I must admit I've reached a point with my disco where the major work is done and with moving into a new home etc it has taken a huge back seat and probably will not see much more than a new set of tyres getting put on it in the near future, wot have the time or money for major work, i will be glad just to have it to use as it is.
However, once you have sorted this front axle swap and you can tell me exactly what's involved I will be very very grateful for a chat about how to do it.
If I could get an axle, get all the bits, and then sort the job over a weekend I would tackle it, those swivel balls are utter ****e!
Well I can tell you now the main differences, its a few inches wider, the wheels are a smaller pcd and the radius arms are about twice the size with different mounts.
I believe that's about all that will effect swap wise.
You can but new radius arm mounts for either axle end to use old style arms or chassis end to use new style.
The only thing I haven't sussed is if I need to get a d2 rear to match the width
