Ill start checking all those you have listed. The axle change was due to brakes not the noise. I was asking about the axle because rather than sourcing parts, i was going to buy a complete disco and use the box and the axle and other parts i could salvage but now it seems its not as cost...

When im cruising along with my foot on the accelerator and take my foot off there is a "clak" as if its metal on metal and then wgen i put my foot back on the accelerator there is a clunk. There is a lot of play in my front prop. A good 40-50mm. Iv changed the output bearing and the uj's on the...

Thankyou that is very usefull and yes the reason behind me swapping was to accomodate rear disc brakes. I have bought a 1988 defender that has had a transfer box off a discovery 300tdi fitted and it is making an awful noise when accelerating and realeasing power. So my theory was to buy a 300...

Thanks for the reply's..... I will do some research on them but this was my first port of call. I was told by a lad at craddocks that it would be a straight swap so just wanted to know if anyone else had done it

What is a salisbury axle?? Sorry im not to familiar with the landrover stuff as this is my first one

Hi all. Iv been told that the rear axle from a 300tdi disco should be a straight swap on my defender 110 200tdi...... Can anyone confirm this??

I will have a look on the weekend. Seems like I need to look into this a bit more

Oh ok thanks. Sounds like more searching on ebay then. I've had a look and I can't seem to see any significant wear

Ahh I see. . . Sorry again. Ive had a look underneath while someone sat inside and snatched the clutch and it sounds to be coming from the tranny box. (the clunk happens when changing gear) All the uj's dont seem too bad. I've found a gearbox and transfer box of a disco 200tdi and I just...

First off in sorry if this is the wrong place. This is my first thread! All I'm wondering is. . . . . . Will a 200tdi gearbox and transfer box for a 200tdi disco fit a 200tdi defender??? One has come up cheap and I'm convinced my transfer box is responsible for the clunking noise underneath
