Anyone know of good information on these vehicles? I know it's not an LC. But there is a cherry looking, rust free Series III Landrover nearby for $5,500. Any thoughts or websites I can use to educate myself?
replacing an axle shaft is easy.Mace, I believe that the axle "joinery" is intended to be the weak link in the drive train as replacing an axle is much simpler than other tasks like fixing propeller shafts, u-joints, pinions and ring gears in the field. The steel used in "forging" the axles is fairly mild. I have a couple of busted ones I use as a tool handles and a pry bar. I was surprised at how soft the steel is.
On the other hand it could be that Rover was just too cheap to use better quality steel or finish the axles hearder.
