Rangie WMS

Post by Damo »

Guys, what's the WMS width of the Rangie rear diff? Any differences in year models or are they all the same? Are the full floating or semi floating setup?

Thanks :D

I think the Classic rangies are full floaters and the P38a's are semi floaters. Not sure what the WMS are though.

Classic is full float.

And I thought the P38 was as well.

I'm pretty sure the P38a and D2 share the same axles. The D2 is definately a semifloater. Hmmm, conflict - not sure then Michael.

P38's and D2's do not share axles, but they are of similar design - non floaters.

It is such a shame Land Rover made the backward step from full float to semi float - after doing away with it in about 1954!!! Once the defender is replaced it will probably be all downhill unfortunately.

Thanks fellas :silly:

The WMS measurement would still be handy if anyone else reads this, off a classic rangie to be precise.
