Earlier model Commodores have 12mm studs but the same PCD.

Also and can't be 100% on this, the 120PCD is on these as well

BMW X3 & X5

VW Toureg & late model Transporters

the centralising spigots are different however. This means that despite the same PCD and stud sizes, that wheels are not necessarily interchangable between all of the above. You can adapt in some casese with centralising runs (hubcentrics?). Also note that there are some stud length variations which will have various implications eg BMW rims on to D3/D4/RRS does not use the same number of threads as factory rims - there are implications in the wheels/tyre modifications guideline regarding this. Likewise the offsets vary and again there are comments re this in the modification guidelines.

incase you have a D1 Centre Console for a manual in your possession, I'll be very much interested in one.:angel:

Would anyone know if the B pillar is the same on a D2 as a D1.
I have a damaged D2 and a D1 wreck.

Defender front springs (300tdi anyway) fit Disco 1 & Disco 2 rear.
AFAIK they also fit D2 front (although thicker wire (220lb/in I think) - good to uprate for the heavy bullbar, winch, etc) not sure about D1 front.

I just looked at the two side by side; the pillars appear to be very similar, but the lock striker is a completely different type, so, unless you are very competent with the welder, or use a D1 front door.....

Does this sound right, want to put the bags back on the TD5 so can I use the rear springs - pale blue colour - at the front as I have a MCC alloy bar and warn 9500 to fit

This is what is missing from the above !

Front drive shaft output/hub seals between the two are the same part.

for what it's worth, after finding the numbers of my rear springs it turns out they are dobinson medium duty springs for a D2, which equates to slightly more HD on a D1. but they fit. the fronts i have normal D1 medium duty.
