Late update, but glad everyone enjoyed essex off road was a great day out!!

Think Chris got a load of pics, still fixing bits on the landy. managed to destroy a trailing arm chassis bush so has 2 inches of wheel movement for half the day, wore my front pads to nothing, destroyed a diff cross pin and wreck the diff and in the process snap the splines clean off my front passenger half shaft somehow and put a hole in my front diff pan.

And passenger side top swivel pin is wrecked.

apart from that its all good, and im slowly getting my way through the repairs lol.

Take it your having Brian's diff then.

checked ebay and they are just not worth anything.
Breaking a perfectly good Disco don't sit well, but i need the money for the new one and some improvements to it.

What are the symptoms of a knackered one?
As far as a I know they are good. If your about on Tuesday and want to have a drive your more than welcome.

I'm not sure what will be transferable to the 110 which I presume will be 10 spline and the Disco is 24.

If its on stands and you turn the wheels you can feel any play in diff, as long as it not to bad let me know when you have broken it.

wickford90 · Sep 6, 2012

Could someone sort it so I can go on EMM Facebook page. Thank you

Brian S · Sep 6, 2012

Mikey did not need it.

Just a few minor bits then!!

Are you 24 spline or earlier 10 spline stuff? I have got a load of 10 spline bits here that are going scrappy in a few days if you need any of them...

Hi jon thanks for the offer much appreciated, both my diffs are 24 spline tho.

Geoff i managed to sort it, had a diff in the workshop with knackered pinion bearings but rebuilt it and used that one, so brians is up for grabs.

I know what you mean Nick, I don't like to see a good disco die but a 110 will survive out of it so there is a positive.

Just think, a 300tdi powered 110

The price went up

but I'm still having it

Its a diesel turbo and i have been thinking about my engine but i read somewhere that a 200tdi is a simple job and a 300 requires adaptations to mounts and where it joins the gearbox?

666 george · Sep 7, 2012

I know the mounts are in a different place but don't know about the gearbox joint. Time to get the welder out.

Jongould · Sep 7, 2012

From what I know the 300 needs new engine mounts aswell as the gearbox is longer and engine sits further forward...
