Hi guys, I seem to have broken the rubber thing at the back of my rear shaft on my Disco...Is it possible to remove the shaft and drive it to get a replacement tomorrow?..I can't remember if I have done it before.
Cheers

It's normally a regular failure point on lifted cars.
Even if yours is not lifted, it may be a good time to convert the diff to a regular 4 bolt flange & fit a RR Classic or D1 tailshaft.

Thank you everyone, did the trick just fine...scored a new roto thing from FWD and will fit this evening. ps the car isnt lifted, I will explore the rr classic option for next time....Cheers

Hear this a lot, and I have all the bits to do the conversion...Originally Posted by Scouse
But in 7 years, lifted 4" running 33's our D2 is still running the factory Rotoflex coupling fitted in 2000

Take some pics or mark which way the bolts go. it can get a little confusing when its all apart...it did for me anyway
u may also need to change the spigot bush as well. Alot of doughnuts are sold with the spigot bush so u can change it at the same time,
regards Tom
AT RESTOnly use the genuine GKN couplings, there are some elcheapo couplings being offered around $25 ones. Or you be replacing then early
