Finally got my diff done ...
Got a donor axle complete from a rolled Disco that had only done 48k ... mine has 117k on it, all works well and sounds great.
I is happy ... I now have a quiet Landrover Discovery. ;)
Nice one Paul, that was a mother of a job but at least you now have a 93% new truck ;-)

Yeah. Lot of it, tbh, was me prevaricating and not having enough time to do it all in one hit, so when I had an hour, it'd take me 1/2 an hour getting stuff ready and packing away so only working on it for 30 mins at a time. I desperately need to get a garage or some kind of lean-to roof so I can keep dry ... ;)
Mind, when the noise first started in France I said at the time that it sounded like a diff tooth missing. I just didn't want to get into the job I think. Now I've done it, and all the other bits along the way, it's given me confidence that I can tackle anything on the Disco ... given working space and time.
Next one will be sorting a small weap I have from either the transfer box or main gearbox, can't quite track that down.
