Frequently asked questions

What does the differential cross shaft do?
The differential cross shaft locates through the differential case and carries the two pinion gears, letting the crownwheel drive both half-shafts while allowing the wheels to turn at different speeds. It fits the 2-pinion Land Rover-type differential on the Defender, Discovery 1, Range Rover Classic and P38.
When is the cross shaft replaced?
The cross shaft is typically replaced during a differential rebuild, when the pinion gears, thrust washers and bearings are renewed together. Fitting means removing and stripping the diff, so it's usually a workshop job on the Land Rover-type axle.
What are the signs the cross shaft needs replacing?
The cross shaft typically wears where the differential pinion gears rotate on it, showing as scoring or play. Worn shafts usually cause a whine or knock from the axle. It's best replaced whenever the differential is opened up for the pinion gears or thrust washers.
How do I confirm this is the right cross shaft for my axle?
This is for the 2-pinion Land Rover-type differential, not the heavier 4-pinion or Salisbury type. Confirm your axle is the standard 2-pinion Rover-type before ordering, as the cross shaft and pinion arrangement differ between designs.
