    LR spindle ID tolerances are so large that I have found some where a 30spl axle fits with no machining needed.

    I just googled the F9 31 spline and its 1.3333" or 33.865mm So I guess you are only boring about 1 - 1.3mm wich would be half of that on wall thckness.

    Again, I take it you had no problems in this area?
    Twice my wheel fell off.....but they were fronts

    It was fine

    Better still why spend all that money putting ashcroft gear in a rover housing and not pegging it? Pegging only takes a few hours to do

    Lets keep this tread reasonable please and positive, i just pointed out a reality of a setup thats 31hp of what im going to run and it gets driven hard and you say yeah but in the rain and for a short period, do you know the guy and how he drives? Its running full ashcroft gear front and rear and it hasnt broken yet, but may. Its a case study

    Who knows mate, but its holding together to date, so maybe theres your reason. If you really want to know, Maybe get on the phone to Andrew and have a chat to him about why he does what he does , at the same time maybe thank him for building some of the best Range Rover Classics and Disco's in the world, dont believe me, go check them out for yourself. Every build he makes is getting better, and at the end of the day is based on options the client chooses. If you want something not on the option list he will try to make it happen. Pegging done properly is not cheap or easy for the average punter, buying the built 3rd from Ashcroft is probably the easiest option imo
