Thread: AEU1828 CV are they used on Range Rovers?

NO.

Most discos and rangies use stubless CVs - e.g. R606665 (early 2 door CVs)

Countys have AEU 2522s - commonly regarded as the strongest rover CV (apart from 101cvs).
Stage 1 Cvs are almost identical and just as strong - but I thought the PN was AEU1811????

The RRC stubless CV (R606665) is very similar, except it has a female 10 spline instead of a stub shaft, which makes it 33% weaker - assuming the same stub axle material.

Thanks IsuzuR..

Don't have my books or even the Rave CD at work and don't actually have any Range Rover parts catalogues (shame on me).

But I thought the 1828 number was the CV number and the other numbers related to the whole assembly with the long or short inner halfshaft. The inner halfshafts also have their own numbers.

Will have another look when I get home.

Here is some info I posted AGES ago on outerlimits. You were right on the 1828!

Here are the 3 that Mal Story calles the "good" rover CV's

R606665
Early R/R & Disco CV joints (RR 1969-1987 (to VIN EA305589) - Disco 1989-1993) - 23 spline inner, 10 spline female outer (no stub axle)

AEU1828
Stage one S111 - 23 spline inner 24 spline outer stub

AEU2522
County and 200Tdi Defender - to axle #20L48865 1984-1994 - 23 spline inner 24 spline outer stub (same as AEU1828 but a slightly longer stub)


And here are the crap ones... The info is a bit confusing for some of the later RR/Disco ones - can anyone clarify - LR may have multiple part numbers for the same CV.

RTC6862
300Tdi Defender (1993 - current) - crappy (tiny) 32 spline inner, 24 spline outer stub - from axle #20L48866

RTC5843
Later model S1 Disco (Non ABS - 1993 - ?) and RR (Non ABS - 1987-1989 (VIN EA305590 - JA624755))

RTC6811
Later model S1 Disco (ABS) and RR (ABS - 1987-1989) - with 10 spline outer

TDJ000010 - possibly also STC 3051?
Range Rover Classic 1992-end ABS Disco 1 - with 24 spline outer (I think).

STC3204
P38A Range Rover - don't know splines

TDR100790
S2 Disco - don't know splines

Thanks IsuzuR

Clarifies my thinking and also the reason why people like Ashcroft's don't make replacements for the SIII Stage 1 CCs.

(You know its interesting - in places where there were no SIII Isuzu's like South Africa it seems that some peole get confused when you talk about "Stage 1s". My guess is that they must refer to them as SIII V8s!)

Not to confuse things, but I asked a similar question elsewhere and was told that the County CVs are actually 5mm-10mm shorter than the Stage I CVs. Apparently you can use a County CV, (which is easier to get), in a Stage I, but because it's shorter you have to Loctite a bolt and washer in place to keep the CV from moving inward.

I don't know for sure, though - I was just told that.

Does anyone have a spare County CV they can measure? Because I've got some old Stage I CVs I can measure for comparison.

Davo - you are correct! That was posted many years ago, and that bit of info was mixed up.

There is a thread on here showing pics of Stage 1 and 110 county CVs side by side. However - I wouldn't use the method you described, rather I would machine a few mm from the drive flanges, so you can fit the circlip. After all, if you can't get Stage 1 CVs, you won't be swapping back any time soon, and even if you do, you can fit a washer under the circlip!
