Hi all ,
My perentie / county front diff housing has taken one too many hits, and will need replacement At some stage .

I just wanted to know what year would be a direct replacement ? I was hoping to bolt my swivel ball housing etc straight up as all else is good ,

should my my first choice be a 130 ,then 110 and maybe a discovery ? what years would be a cut off point to bolt straight up ?
Thanks

I’d keep an eye on Grays auctions. They have front axle housings come up for sale. You might pick up a RFSV type housing.

You could always cut the old center off and weld a Gwyn Lewis cover on...

Pick up only. PM

Watch the arms the earlier county ones have different distances between in the clevis pins.

I bought a Perentie that had hit a rock at high speed & munched the front diff - housing was obviously cactus too.
I found that the same year Range Rover diff housing fitted exactly. Simply unbolt the swivel housings & re bolt up. In my case I needed the diff too.
