    What diff has my '68 2A been fitted with

    Hi guys,

    I guess this is a perennial question, and has been asked a million times before, but could not find anything on the forum that popped out at me. Mine is an ex ARMY 109 with the rear diff having no rear cover but the pinion/carrier assembly can be removed from the front of the diff housing. Is this a Rover diff or ?? Then waht axles is it likely to have fitted? Not really interested in converting to Salisbury type as I want this to be restored to as close to original as possible.

    Cheers,

    Barra

    As above - 68 should be a standard Rover diff, looks the same as the front one, and should be 4.7:1. The Salisbury diff was not even optional in 1968, although some have been fitted (S3 one is a bolt-in change with prop shaft from the S3, lwb only).

    What Diff is fitted

    Thanks guys - correct as usual. I rec'd my LR parts book last night & had a quick look to confirm it is fitted with Rover diffs. I wasn't sure if Rover or ENV were fitted but now I know & confirmed by you gentlemen.
    The ARN of my vehicle by the way is 174-803 (109 GS) & i found a unit colour plate behind the typical Tri-service plate fitted in the TAC plate holder. this has got me a little closer to its origins.

    Cheers,

    Neil
