Just bought a rear axle from a 2006 110 td5 defender and want to swap this with my drum braked salisbury axle on my 1993 200tdi 110 defender. I got a FTC4198 PROPSHAFT HEAVY DUTY REAR that I hope will be the right fit and have the original dampers with the td5 axle (not sure if this matters). Before I remove my salisbury and realise its not going to work, has anyone done this conversion before?

I have done this conversion now, it wasn`t straight forward. If anyone wants to do this rather than fitting a discovery axle here is what i did. First problem was the a-frame fulcrum (the part the ball joint is pressed into) was out of line with the new axle didnt realise land rover changed this in 1994 i think, compared to my 1993 fitted to my salisbury which is slightly longer and less of an angle. Second my prop was too long and i have not been able to find a standard land rover prop to fit my 200tdi setup so I had to spend on a custom prop measuring 111.5 cm as land rover didnt use this axle with my engine/gearboxes combination. I find this axle a lot quieter, have discs, more ground clearence and I know its rated for my 110, job done.

Hi mate, trying to do a similar thing here but with a wolf 110 rear axle,
what do you mean by the a-frame joint being out of line and how did you fix that?
Cheers
