Looks Nissota... I will guess 80 or 105 series front axle with Landie hubs.

Would it be a Nissan or Toyota front end to which you are grafting Range Rover Classic swivel housings and hub assemblies to ?
Question is why not use the complete front end instead of building a hybrid one?
Wagoo.

Why not use complete front end? So I can keep the same wheel stud pattern to my rear and not shear studs

Not really any grafting so to speak.....

I retract my guess on the account that the vehicle i guessed doesnt even run beam axle front

altho all the other statements about it i think are right and should be plenty of infor to find out after research.

My last guess is a GQ Nissan,soley based on the observation that the cv joint on the floor appears to be about the same diameter as the RRC one beside it,and no Toyota style electic difflock gubbins on the r/h/s of the diff.
Wagoo.

Nissan Patrol (GQ?) front?



(and I think I just found where you got the idea )

(no wait - he kept it 6-stud)
