This is a quality OEM Diff Flange, not a cheap copy one.
This is a 4 bolt diff flange conversion kit to replace the rubber drive coupling (doughnut) on the rear of Discovery 1, RRC and Discovery 2 when you fit a wide angle rear propshaft. It is required when you fit a suspension lift on late Discovery 1, RRC and Discovery 2 as the rubber drive coupling doesn’t last long. A new propshaft will also be required as wide angle propshafts have a 4 bolt flange instead of the 3 bolt as standard.
This can also be used to replace the front and rear 4 bolt diff flanges on all 24 spline diffs fitted to Defender, Discovery 1, Range Rover Classic and Discovery 2.
You can also use one of these 4 bolt flange kits to fit an earlier Discovery 1 & RRC 200tdi 4 bolt flange rear propshaft on to a later Discovery 1, RRC and Discovery 2.
This flange comes complete with a built in 12.5mm spacer as many others don’t have the spacer, if you do fit one without the spacer it will cause the diff to seize up. It also has a recessed metal mud shield to help stop mud and debris getting to the oil seal, I have already pressed the mud shield on the flange to make it easier for you to fit.
(please note the built in spacer is not a propshaft spacer, it is a spacer that is part of the internal part of the flange, the piece that goes into the diff itself where the oil seal runs on)
I do not recommend fitting propshaft spacers as it stops the propshaft fully closing, it can brake the transfer box off the gearbox if the propshaft cant fully close.
Overall height :- 60mm
Torque setting of centre nut/bolt 85 lb ft / 115 Nm
