Rear Axle Parts
Discovery 2 rear axle parts for wheel hub and ABS sensor replacement, differential sealing and servicing, propshaft coupling repairs, Watts linkage work and locking differential upgrades.
Start with the component being replaced, then check the original hub, differential and rear propshaft arrangement. Discovery 2 rear driveline parts split between the standard 3-bolt rubber coupling setup and 4-bolt universal-joint conversions, while some Rover differential parts are shared with the front axle.

Find the right Discovery 2 rear axle parts
Rear axle work can involve the wheel hub, differential, rear propshaft connection or Watts linkage. Identify the affected component first, then check the original part number, flange arrangement, supplied parts and any shared front-or-rear fitment before ordering.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Rear wheel bearing, hub or ABS sensor replacement | TAY100050G rear hub assembly with ABS sensor | Confirm rear fitment and whether a new hub nut, O-ring seal and four hub bolts are also required |
| Differential oil leak or axle service | Corteco differential flange seal, diff gasket, filler plugs and drain plugs | Identify whether the leak is from the pinion flange, differential-to-axle joint, filler plug or drain plug |
| Repair the standard rubber coupling arrangement | Meyle HD rear propshaft coupling kit and STC3723 3-bolt differential flange | Confirm that the vehicle retains the original 3-bolt differential flange and rubber coupling setup |
| Convert to a 4-bolt universal-joint propshaft | Discovery 2 rear propshaft conversion kit | Confirm that a complete conversion from the 3-bolt rubber coupling to the 4-bolt flange and UJ arrangement is intended |
| Watts linkage replacement or raised-suspension correction | Centre pivot, complete linkage kit or long-travel arms | Check whether the job needs the centre pivot, complete standard linkage or longer arms for a raised suspension setup |
| Improve rear differential traction | Ashcroft ATB, Ashcroft air locker or Terrafirma E-Locker | Confirm 24-spline Rover differential fitment and whether automatic torque biasing or a selectable full-lock differential is required |
Check rear axle fitment before ordering
The category combines Discovery 2-specific rear components with Rover differential parts shared across several axle positions and vehicles. Use the individual product title, part number and fitment information together rather than assuming every component fits every rear axle arrangement.
Rear hub or differential
Rear hub assemblies, hub bolts, stake nuts and hub seals are different components from the differential seals, flanges and internal differential parts.

3-bolt or 4-bolt flange
Confirm whether the rear propshaft uses the standard 3-bolt rubber coupling or has been converted to a 4-bolt universal-joint arrangement.

Rover differential fitment
Locking and torque-biasing differential centres require the correct Rover differential and spline arrangement. Do not order from the vehicle model alone.

Standard or raised suspension
Watts linkage centre pivots and standard replacement kits perform a different job from long-travel arms intended for raised suspension setups.

Genuine, OEM and specialist rear axle parts
Individual product pages identify the stated brand and quality level. Compare the original part number, component position, flange arrangement and supplied hardware alongside the brand before ordering.
| Part type | How it is shown on Twinwoods 4x4 |
|---|---|
| Genuine Land Rover | Genuine drain plugs and other individual components are identified as Genuine Land Rover where that supply is confirmed. |
| OEM or OE-supplier | Corteco seals and other OEM or OE-supplier components are identified where the product data supports the claim. |
| OE-quality replacement | Rear hub assemblies are identified by their stated quality level and whether the wheel bearing and ABS sensor are supplied as a complete assembly. |
| Specialist upgrades | Propshaft conversions, long-travel Watts linkage parts and locking differentials are identified by their mechanical layout, brand and required axle fitment. |
