    whats the diff?

    Just ordered a Karcraft front diff protecta for the 03 Xtreme, but they dont do a rear one as its a different diff, who does? Davis's dont either just cut and shut the disco model 8O , so would prefer one designed specifically for the fender, pics would be great, thanks.

    Hi Crump,

    What brand is the Karcraft unit?

    Suprised that it isnt the same for your rear as doesn't your model Defender have a Rover diff in the rear instead of a Salisbury?

    yep, that seems to be the problem, Salisbury front and Rover rear, so I need a guard to fit a Rover (I think :roll: )

    Crump,

    Is the rear diff housing the same as the front, ie; round centre not a different shape, the Salisburies have the back plate bolted to them and are much larger and different shape than the Rover diffs.

    If you rear looks like the front then you have rover diffs front and rear like a rangie, disco or D90.

    If thats the case then the same protector should fit front and back, unless you have a D2 disco with the watts link :roll:

    Confused now :wink:

    Hmmmmm


    Look the same but different to me


    Buggered if I know now, the rear although it's deffinately not a Salisbury looks somewhat different to the front :?

    Mine are same F & R, as I thought Rangies and 90 are, I also thought the TD5 Defenders were too 8O

    Just goes to show you, you know what thought thought 8O 8O :roll:
