Hi guys

Im looking for a set of 10 spline HEAVY DUTY half shafts for a disco.........anyone give me some ideas as to where i might find some or how to stop snaping the standard ones.

Cheers

scorpian do them

but if they dont brake whats going to give instead, may be a cheapish weak link rather than doing diffs etc!

What wheels have you got? I've got a set of 200TDi Defender shafts that are supposed to be very good (LR original parts) but they won't fit inside an alloy wheel.  Had all new bearings in the stub axles and hubs, new CV joints etc.

Thanks mate.............im using modular steel wheels with 265/75/16 grizzly's...........so much grip that something always breaks at the slightest stuck.........had a look at scorpion but they only do the 24spline half shafts.......

I know the defender axle set up is diferent to the disco...........the disco has a cv joint with removable shafts from both sides (if that makes sence) where as the defender ones have the outer shaft as part of the cv joint..........maybe have a look and see if it can be changed.

What sort of beer tokens we looking at for the defender shafts etc ??

Thanks

I'd leave the standard ones in just to add a nie cheap weak link

i ran with 33 12/50 procomp x terrains with arb lockers front and back and used to reckon on 1 half shaft per outing. they were 24 spline though
Never managed to break a front one though. rears are a doddle to change, just make sure you carry spares.

theres also the possibility that driving style and right foot maybe to blame for the breakages!!
