I picked up a disco D30 from an 87 4 cyl XJ with 4.10 gears that I want.
I am going to use this housing with the gears all set up (they are MINT!), but install my axles from my 90 XJ non-disco D30 (it is ABS so they have the bigger ujoints and I had just replaced them)
Anyway, I took the carrier out to replace the axle seals and there is an oring on each side of the housing. When I had my 3.55 housing open before I'm pretty sure there weren't any orings in there. I can't figure out what these orings would do? They are about the same diameter as the carrier bearing outside race.
The thing is I can't find these o rings in any schematic of a D30. Has anyone come across these and know part #'s by any chance?
the ones I took out were in pretty bad shape and there is no chance of getting a part # off of them, and measuring would be very iffy at best as they are all distorted and brittle.
