<< < (2/3) > >>

that would be great if that was the case, i could buy your axle ( if you will sell it of course), and rebuild mine from it with out taking my axle back off the car.(hate doing a job twice or even three times as i seem to be doing)

I put Stage 1's complete on my swb IIa. Had to relocate the rear spring pads but other than that it was a simple as finding the right U bolts to fit (new). I think Three trips to LRS got it sorted. I'd do the same again... drop the front spring mount and undo the U bolts.. sorted.

thanks for the reply, why did you put St1 V8 axle on yours?

Lee_D:
I got them for the higher ratio diffs and the better 11 inch brake drums.

I was running a 4.2 XK Jag lump on a 3 speed auto box at the time all from an XJ6 fastened to the transfer box with a (no longer available) ashcroft conversion. The conversion was intended for the auto but with a sd1 rover unit on.  :D

Jag lump died but the 3 speed auto is still in and now has a SD1 V8 strapped to it. Sadly the Chassis now needs replacing  ](*,)  but I'll get it done along with a galv bulkhead and should have a good many years out if it yet.

good luck with the build.
do the series diffs fit the splines on the stage 1 half shafts? :roll:
