{"product_id":"defender-90-complete-front-axle-assembly","title":"Defender 90 Complete Front Axle Assembly","description":"\u003cp\u003eComplete Front Axle Assembly for the Defender 90: a complete remanufactured front axle with rebuilt diff, new swivels, bearings and seals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe differentials on these vehicles are strong when they are fed the right oil and are not asked to do things they were never built for, like big tyres and a heavy right foot on a locked centre diff. The Discovery 3 and 4 and the Sport L320 rear electronic locking diff is a known failure; the Defender Rover diff breaks shafts before it breaks gears. Everything here says what it is rated for and what it is not. The 90 is the short wheelbase and the one that gets used hardest off road, so the parts on it are the ones we see worn out fastest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification and fitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Defender 90, chassis code LD 90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: 200Tdi, 300Tdi, Td5, 2.4 and 2.2 Puma diesel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction dates: 1983 to 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuality: Remanufactured or New Unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: cross referenced to the factory part number for your VIN and confirmed before dispatch, because supersessions on these vehicles are frequent and one printed number would be wrong for somebody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe failure this addresses: an axle with pitted swivels, a noisy diff and a leak at every seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabour time: about 8 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoding: none.

Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich version to buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemanufactured is stripped to the casting, measured, rebuilt with new bearings seals and wear parts and rig tested, with a surcharge refunded on your old unit. New Unit is a brand new unit rather than an exchange, for when your old one is past rebuilding or you cannot be without the vehicle while we assess the core.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Solihull Spares","offers":[{"title":"Remanufactured","offer_id":54809446973773,"sku":"SLS-DIF-009-R","price":2199.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"New Unit","offer_id":54809447006541,"sku":"SLS-DIF-009-NU","price":2949.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/6247\/2269\/files\/Defender_90_Complete_Front_Axle_Assembly_b8dba8b4-5725-4304-a541-af49e89402e6.jpg?v=1790171014","url":"https:\/\/solihullspares.com\/products\/defender-90-complete-front-axle-assembly","provider":"Solihull Spares","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
