    D2 right rear axle

    As some may have seen, Last week I snapped a rear axle.

    I was told we had a spare out of a D1, which i was told would fit but she dont look the same.

    What is the best axle to fit I have 33" with 4" lift?

    can get a used one for $110 posted from WA or a full rear end for $650. in Vic

    what fits the D2 and what is the best for it please.


    Thanks all

    ashcroft in the uk, my heavy duty pair came in at $600 including shipping, that was about 3 month ago. 4 days from the uk to my door.
    Ashcroft Transmissions - Disco II Rear Shafts

    or locally try coffs harbour 4x4 for the hy-tuff versions.

    Cool I was looking at them Les Richmond talk about them but dont list but only standard rears for 650 so thats pretty good.

    I have a spare car so can pull a old one out but looking in at it with the big shoes it needs a better one.

    but we all want to upgrade parts it the cost that hold us back for time

    The Discovery 1 rear axle you have spare will not fit. They are totally different.

    Make sure that you pull the diff out and check it too. The gears inside the diff may be damaged also.
