Hi
I am from Austria and i want to know two things (for now:-)
What rear axle is standard in a defender 130 year 2008 (is this a salisbury axle?)
The front axle is rover axle with 24 teeth or 10?
I read a threat about lockers here in the forum which the detroit locker is easy to install and works good also in curves?
Are there any other things you have to install with lockers?

I have a jeep and the defender is my first rover so have to ask.

Been 6 times in Australia until now, britz bushcamper v8 lc, was very impressive again.

Bye
Wolfgang

Willkommen!

The 110 has a Rover diff, I'm fairly sure this is the same on the latest 130 too

Hi,
What type and brand was the autolocker?
Has the rear raver axle 4 planetary gear or two?
Thanks
Wolfgang

I think the RD128 ARB air locker will go in

They are P38type diffs, not Rover diffs. They're similar but not the same.

On both ends, have this axle a 4 planetary gear or two?
What locker would you recommend?
