Yep..I started my reply with 'from my experience' as I have done this axle swap on 2 range rovers both 1985. The later range rover i.e a 'K' reg, I believe, had the wider radius arm brackets so it should be a straight swop. The original question was regarding a 1985 rangie

Finally went for it and changed my DMF and clutch in the P38 ! Trust me its hard work on the floor without a ramp or pit. I used an engine lift through the drivers door. There is a removable panel on the tunnel that allows access with the lift. Even so not a job for the faint hearted! I...

My local motor factor quoted me £350 inc VAT for a replacement after market DMF but I don't know the source ! ' Someone in Manchester' was all I could get out of him. Even so a good price compared to L.R...

Oh dear, didn't want to read this after convincing myself it was the FIP ! I bought a 2nd hand (pre- enjoyed?!) pump from a 49k mileage write off and was about to fit it to-day after finally sourcing a sprocket puller at a sensible price. I did check the EGR valve was opening and closing...

Hi..I have fitted a discovery axle into a 1985 Classic but from my experience note the following. 1, The front radius arm ( hockey stick) brackets welded to the axle casing are wider apart on the disco axle than the original range rover so either (a)have the later bushes pressed into your...

To answer a couple questions.. I have never noticed the MIL light coming on but will look out for it No I don't use supermarket diesel I buy mine by the 25litre can full when I transit Luxembourg in the truck..although its hardly worth doing now as it's about 1.30 euros a litre !
