(1/4) > >>

clairedave:
i have just fitted a 2004 rear axle from 110 td5 to my 1993 90.swb was told it was an easy swop ha ha ha ,fitted axle today had to change spring plates ,not a big job slotted in fine all bolts shocks went together first time then i saw problem prop to short , plus brake line not long enough cn sort brakes as i use old bracket and make up new pipes. but not prop some one must have done same can you help  prop is about 3" SHORT MUST BE ONE THAT FITS OUT THERE :evil:

clbarclay:
What type axle did your 110 origionally have and what type axle have you put on in its place?

If it was the sailsbruy type and changed to a more typical LR axle then IIRC they have a longer pinion shaft and a relativerly shorter prop than the typical LR axle.

clairedave:
i have 200tdi 90 not a 110  used 110  axel from td5  but new axel has a shorter diff case this is the problem.also can i run with no rear prop shaft as i need to get to work monday

clbarclay:
Whoops, just read the 110 part and missed the 90.

Thats with the origional 1993 propshaft? Would fitting the diff out of the  93 axle cure the problem or is length differeance somewhere else?

clairedave:
tryed old diff but dont fit in new casing ,new diff looks very strong with bigger half shafts,need to change prop for diffrent one
