Is this the correct front diff for a 1994 NAS 90?  I plan to go for the ATB.

Sorry Bill, are you saying you have drive flanges available?

With the drive flanges back on there isn't a whole lot of free play - some but not much.  I suspect new ones will be tight but I'm going to say this not the majority of the slack.

It's funny u should ask....   I have a new one here still sitting in the bag😉

Parts for Sale / LT77 Gearbox - $250

Last post by chugthedefender - February 25, 2026, 11:40 AM

I have two early defender LT77 gearboxes for sale. I had planned to use one and keep one for spares but found a used R380. My understanding is they're both exmod and are in unknown condition. Looking for $250 each. Located in Calgary.

Hmm OK, so now I'm up against a bit of  of a challenge. It's looking like a 52
mm socket to get the hub nut off.  I'm seeing these on the Landy sites but does anyone know of a local Calgary supplier?

Slide the drive flanges back on. Be careful not to push the CVs in as they can fall off the spindles.

Rotate them back and forth and see how much free play there is between the two parts. When new, there should be no play.
