    Disco diffs in a Rangie

    My rear diff in my '89 Rangie is about to die, so im looking at puting another diff in.
    Can i put a 24 spline diff from a series 1 disco in? Will it just bolt in or do i have to fabricate anything?
    Also is it worth spending the extra money on a 24 over a 10 spline? I would like to put in an air locker in the future and i run 32" muds. Will the 24 spline be ok?

    Thanks

    It will bolt straight in, 24 splines is better than 10 there ,may be some slight differences in the brake fittings but i'm not 100% on that.

    Are you looking at changing over the entire axel or just he diff centre.

    I have a 2004 Disco Diff centre in the front of my '77 Rangie, bolts straight in but I think you would need to get maxidrive axels which are 24spline at diff and still suit the rangie hubs.

    im thinking of changing the entire diff, disc to disc. Have been told this is cheaper than rebuilding current diff. I was quoted $700 for a complete 24 spline disco diff. Is that reasonable?

    G'Day mate

    whoever told you it was cheeper to spend $700 bucks rather than re-building your center is off his rocker if theres no chiped or broken teath on the CW&P set all thats in there are to bearings approx $60 &$40 bucks and a 10 dollar seal you can rebuild it yourself with a little bit of common sence
