Freewheeling hubs
graham2306:
Does anyone know where I can get freeweheeling hubs to fit a defender axle?
Before you all say, what the hell do you want those for, do you not understand how land Rovers 4 wheel drive works, the axles are not in a land rover, they are in a special that uses Suzuki gearboxes and Suzuki transfer boxes dont like turning front axles without freewheeling hubs. I can't think why anyone would make them as they have no application on a Land Rover, but maybe you lot know better.
Range Rover Blues:
With a bit of luck you might be abvle to make series hubs fit, BUT land rover axles don't like to have their internals stationary. The top swivel bush (Railko bush) needs to be splashed constantly with oil from the CV joint, if it isn't it will run dry and wear out.

Looked at the Series option, but they have a different number of studs and a different number of splines. So basically you would be achanging all of the hub casing and drive bits to make it fit. Have found a Brazilian company, AVM, who have them listed on their website.

Original One-Ten's (in the first few months of production) were offered with a selectable 2wd/4wd transmission
I've only ever knowingly seen one of them
