Britpart items fitted to my sister’s 90 maybe 2 months ago. Might be worth considering some corrosion protection, she’s not worried about minor cosmetics though!

Hmm - I painted mine in quite a few coats of satin black before fitting. No sign of corrosion. |

Do Britpart do an equivalent to the 110 shafts? (LR072977 & 072976)

The shafts are the same on the rear. same PN for both since 2004 IIRC Also can be found on Fb, Ytube, Insta & Twitter @4WDSouthwest |

Could you use Buzzweld (same as the rear crossmember kit) to protect them, and spray them before fitting? Keith |

I think I am just going to smear them with coppaslip like the road wheel flange facing.

That's just what I did this week. Found that both sides are worn, OS more than NS. Got britpart onepiece replacements as they where about £50, compared to £350 each for genuine! Looks like a case of whip out the old and slap in the new. |

The OS was more worn on mine too on the rear, seems to often be the case regardless of 1piece or two.

The offside shaft on a Defender will almost always wear faster and be more likely to break than the nearside due to being shorter and hence less elastic. There will be the odd exception but in general this will be the case. |

I wonder if roundabouts maybe anything to do with it? After all there are a lot of them.
