I have a 95 DI with a rotoflex. Will a D90 rear drive shaft fit my car and would there be any mods. nec.?
Thanks,
Ed

Too short. The front shafts can be swapped, however the wheelbase of the two vehicles(Disco 100", D90 92") makes all the difference in the rear.

You can swap the rear drive shaft of the Classic RR with the Disco 1. You will also need a new drive flange and spacer since the 3 bolt rotoflex will not mate up with the 4 bolt UJ shaft.

I was looking on Atlantic British for something else, and I saw a conversion kit for this...it is priced at 399.95, and has the drive shaft, flange, spacer, etc. How does this price stack up with the DIY route other people have tried? Is AB missing anything from their kit? Thanks, Adam 96D1
