Anybody know if axles from a Discovery 1 1991 will fit a Range Rover
of the same era?

rangie axles on his disco

I reckon they ought to.  You might find inconsistencies of threads on brake
pipes or suchlike, because they have them anyway.  other than that I think
they're the same axles but might well be different springs.

I had heard that the Disco is built on the same chassis as the Rangie,
I may be wrong of course. If that is the casr I would expect the axles to be
swappable.

Well having looked at both they seem to be damn near identical
chassis-wise. I know the springs and things will be different, but I
couldn't see any reason why the axles should be different. Just wanted
to check.

check the width of the bracket where the Radius arms go.... I'm read
somewhere there is a different girth though that may be age related rather
than model.
