200 / 300 axle

<< < (2/3) > >>

Benjamin:
Sure you nont need to just strip it down and replace the barings? Easyer and cheeper than a hole axel swap?

solihull-mick:
John take it from me, bolt them straight on, no problems, done many in the past

Disco_Stu:
Stub axles are shorter on a 300Tdi, mud shield mounting points are different,  the trailing arm brackets have little half moons sectioned out of themto allow a bit more articulation and the caliper bolt thread is also different.

If you stick the full rolling axle under, it is a straight swap. Start swapping bits over and you may have to fiddle things around a bit. Either way, a trip to the local fastener shop for bolts is about as tricky as it gets.

solihull-mick:
If the question is will a 300 axle fit a 200, then yes bolt right on, discs and as stu has said you may need to use the 300 caliper bolts,depending on chassis number you get them off, but your 200 calipers will line up, even imperial calipers fit, as i have them on a 300 disco axles under my hybrid, Not a problem for a man of your caliber john :afro:

andygod:
Give me a shout when you get the parts and I'll give you a hand to fit them.
