My Disco progress so far

<< < (5/6) > >>

TDi.Si:
That was my aim to get it as far back as possible to get a good approach angle. Just need a good departure angle now!
I'm also going to get a plasma rope when I can find one that works with an internal drum brake.

Mr Alford:
awesome buddy superb job what did u use to seal it on top?

TDi.Si:
Cheers for the comments, the winch was stripped and resealed with silicone before it was fitted. I'm still getting a click from the solenoid occasionly so I may put a heavy duty solenoid pack in there.
Was out playing the other day when the truck started making a noise like dislocating springs (which it can't do as I have +1 springs and standard shocks!) when I took the truck out of difflock it wouldn't move. Took the shafts out and they were fine, then I noticed this leak:



Was a very small hole in the diff pan, and it had dents in the diff pan. Took out the diff and this is what I found!




So I swapped the whole rear axle for one on a mates scrap RR.  :roll:

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
 :) it would make me think twice about lifting a tool if i found that every time , credit m8 keep it up

clbarclay:
I would just fit a fresh diff out of your mates RRC.

By the looks of it the diff pan is shot and fabrication isn't a problem for your so why not take the oppertunity to cut of the laminated cigarette paper origional and replace it with more substantial one. Mine are know made from the end caps for a pressure vessel and at 6mm thickness there is now no need for diff guards.
