    Thoughts on one piece shafts? I know the older defenders had them but wondering about converting newer ones?

    Anyone bought these?
    You searched for Drive shaft - Defender Upgrades

    Cheers
    that link says they suit D90 and D110/130 with Rover rear. No defender came with a Rover rear in the 110/130 series so best check that P38 axles are the same length as that advertised. There is no mention of material choice of the axles and "HD" is a loose term. If you are not actually in need of a HD axle, it might not matter. I have a set of D1 1 piece axles at home you can have. i'll never use them. I can package them but you have to arrange courier or collect (Stanwell Park NSW). If you want a HD axle, i'd be shy to pay money for a set of axles of an unknown standard. $500 landed for this set, or $880 for maxidrive in hytuff. Eat vegemite sangas for lunch for a few weeks and buy a known product.

    Thanks for your patience lads!

    I’ve had a 2010 puma 110, 2006 130, 2002 130 and currently have a 2006 110; they all had the same diffs.

    I thought all Defenders post tdi’s w Sals, had ‘Rover’ diffs?
    Is this not the case?

    and no mention of the quality of material used to make them or who makes them, so are they just Britpart ones?

    I think the rear on the 02 130 should have been an uprated Salisbury.

    On the subject of price..., a little wisdom from Sir Terry.

    “The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

    Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

    But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A rich man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

    This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.”

    Nope, definitely a long nose in the 02 and it was factory.
