I have a 110 defender in the pas 12 months I have replaced the half shaft 3 times and the flange once on the rear driver side. Any suggestions as to why this may be happening. I don't off-road. Is it a problem with the rear diff? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.
Are you pulling heavy trailers? Its only happened me once and I had 2 tonne behind me, it was my fault and that is normaly the case with broken halfshafts (driver error).
Thanks for the replies. I have been using britpart replacements but so many in such a short time seems to suggest something else. I do pull heavy trailers from time to time - but wasn't when any of the breakages happened. Any suggestions as to the next step?
Thanks again.
only thing to do is drain oil on diff, and inspects the oil for metal bits... and then most prob have a "specialist" take the diff apart and inspect whats goin on inside thts chewing up the shafts...
