    D1 rear airlocker into D2 with uni joint.

    Hi All,
    I have been searching around and found conflicting information about wether my 96 D1 rear centre with an ARB locker converted to uni joint with a D1 shaft all bolt into my standard mid 2000 model D2.

    It all measures up ok but if anyone knows of any issues I may come accross please let me know? It's been in 2 different D1's and has been sitting in a bucket for 9 months now.

    Was going to sell it but I might as well just stick it in the D2 if it will fit.

    Thanks
    Stephen

    As far as I know, the only difference is the length of the pinion on the diff, when changing from the rotoflex to a uni you need to put a 10mm spacer in the D2 diff pinion, so if your using the D2 casing you'll need to put the spacer in, I don't know if this needs to be done if it's a straight swap using the complete centre and housing from the D1.

    I think there is a slight difference between the centres and the housings.

    As long as the D1 Diff is a 24 spline, it will go straight in.

    Im running an ARB with 4 bolt flange / uni on the diff with a D1 rear shaft now.

    It's the same locker -- RD128 for both Disco's.

    If you want 150% factual confirmation either way, Send Steve an e-mail at
