Ive got a 1994 200 tdi 90 with thick type drive members on the rear. Ive just bought a Ashcroft diff which requires 24 spline half shafts.
im assuming mine are 10 spline given the age of vehicle and the fact it has the thick type drive members.
So based upon that i need the old style rear half shafts from ashcroft and the 5806 drive members. so far so good!
The problem is that I know for fact that the front axle on my vehicle is from a Disco 1 (steering damper is behind axle), and im worried that the rear axle is from a disco 1 as well.
The drive members between Disco1 and Defender have different bolt hole sizes and PCD so either an ashcroft 5806 or 5806/M.
How can you tell the difference between the two type visually? Can you tell if its a disco axle visually? anybody know the PCD or bolt hole sizes for the two types of drive member? For info the the rear axle has disk brakes, but dont know if thats normal. The year is bang on the cusp between 200/300.
too hard!
