My Series has Disco 1990 axles with Series diffs. I am trying to replace the swivel & cannot identify the correct swivel ball. Mine has a machined seat for the bush on the half shaft to sit against. I know it is not the FRC7065 ball as that does not have the machined bit. Everything is 10spline & it also uses the 8mm seals.
So is the axle a 1990 Disco
The number on the axle casing is 34LO3188C I think but it is difficult to read so may not be 100% right.
I have a copy of Rave but it has 1995 on for the Disco & shows a setup with the drive flange seperate but I have found a doc on line that showed an 87 Range Rover with a similar setup but there was a spacer on the half shaft
Old swivel on the right
Half shaft showing bush
Housing showing outer bush the CV runs against
My drive flange has the end shaft attached not with nut & shim etc
The CV is "floating" if thats the right term - it is not an interferance fit the shafts just slide out
Can any one held identify the swivel ball I need
Does anyone have a manual that shows this setup - if I know the vehicle I can then perhaps find the right part
I need to get this sorted so any help gratefully received
