With the exception of the Original Poster...You're all a bunch of pansies
Get a Salsbury for the rear with a 35 spline Detroit locker and get Keith from RoverTracks to build you some 1.5" diameter 35 spline axels. Then wheel it.
You could do what I did and simply find a sals from a series cut the tubes off and do the same to your diff and weld them on, had custom hd axels made here far cheaper than importing from US.
Worked out alot cheaper for me than trying to find a sals with abs, disc's and correct pinion angle for lift.

Are you saying you fitted rover axle tubes to a sals?
The short side axle and axle tube is the same on a series and defender. The only problems with converting one are that the defender sals has a mount for the A-frame cast in as well as a bump stop pad on the short side.
So you can just lengthen the long side by 6" to convert a series sals to a defender, but then you need to sort out the a-frame and bump stop issues if you are keeping the standard suspension links.
Serg, I may have one for sale (110) if you can't find anything closer.

Welcome to the site, Stig.
Does Keith do stub axles (spindles) as well?
He can build the whole diff for you if you want to pay for it, so yeah I would imagine that he would. He also does SpiderTracks housings and some way cool Rover9 custom jobbies.
