What is the differance (if any) between a 90 (disc brake) rear axle and a
Range Rover classic back axle?
TIA

Depends on the ages really....

Earlier RRC axles have one shock absorber mount facing forwards and the
other to the rear (pre-1989 IIRC), even earlier axles (pre-1984 IIRC)
have imperial fittings.

The RRC axle has a different half shaft set up (better IMHO) with the
half shaft permanently attached to the drive flange. (Unlike the 90
where it's not supposed to be but often is :))

Both axles may have different diffs/half shaft splines with the RRC less
likely to have 24 spline than the 90 axle.

If you use the complete axle (case,diff,half shafts, wheel hub, brake
calipers etc....) then, shock absorber mounts allowing, they are
interchangeable.
