GWYN LEWIS

GWYN LEWIS HD REAR TRAILING ARMS

Fits:- Defender 90/110/130, Discovery 1, RRc, standard to 4″ suspension lifts.

*NOTE* These are Powder Coated BLACK and are CRANKED. (Blue avail on request)

They are an absolute must have for any Land Rover that is used off road, as the standard arms are just not strong enough to cope with all the axle and suspension articulation or taking and sort of knocks in our tough Aussie environment. We have dealt with more people than youd care to count that have 'taco'd' a rear arm!

These are probably the strongest cranked style rear arms you can get at 12.5KG a pair, using 43mm x 5mm wall tube on the outside and 28mm x 3.5mm wall on the inside, these arms are sand blasted and are double powder coated 1 primer and 2 top coat Black.

Come complete with the bush in the axle end and a new nut on the chassis end, the axle end is offset welded to stop the arm fouling the axle mounting on full suspension dropout, suitable for standard to 4 inch suspension lifts.

On older RRC you will require a chassis bush as the older ones had imperial threads and the bush has a smaller hole in it. If you are unsure the older ones have a 24mm nut on the chassis end, ours are metric M20 thread and a 30mm spanner fits the nut on the chassis end. Most rear arms are metric.

Bump stops do not restrict articulation as many think, as the axle articulates and the angle increases....the coil spring and the bump stop comes away from the axle, you would have to have very long bump stops to restrict articulation.

These Bump Stops are universal fitment, the mounting plate is a heavy duty 5mm plate with 6 mounting holes so you can fit to Front or Rear.

SOLD AS A PAIR

THESE MEGA DUTY SHAFTS ARE THE STRONGEST AND MOST WELL MADE SHAFTS ON THE MARKET FOR LAND ROVER - NO COMPETION (Hence why we stock them!) You get what you pay for...there is no way around it

They feature:

• Double Cardan propshafts are used to help reduce propshaft vibrations on lifted vehicles, especially after caster correction.
  
• Slip joint is at the Double Cardan end out of the mud and water.
• 30 degree wide angle to prevent the propshaft binding up on long travel suspension.
• 40 degree wide angle on the Double Cardan end.
• Heavy Duty Round Flange Face (not the old square type), that bolts to gearbox and diff 79.4mm PCD.
• This version has the superior Italian Double Cardan end with slip joint built into the D/C end.
• Higher torque capacity than a standard Land Rover propshaft, using 60mm heavy duty high torque tube.
• Td5 Discovery 2 transfer box flange is not required to fit this one.
• Heavy duty cap greased 2020 series Universal Joints (30.2 x 81.8mm) with nylon thrust washers and metal/rubber seals, the nylon thrust washers also has a cross in them to allow grease to get to each cup when greasing them.
• Rilsan coated spline for smother operation and helps eliminate vibrations.
• Upgraded involute spline configuration with 18 splines that is also GREASEABLE which is a feature only found on our propshafts.
• Internally plug welded to hold grease in the slider.
• Double seal arrangement on the slip assembly, with 110mm of movement and full spline contact on the male and female slider to help with long travel suspension.
• Phased when required to reduce vibrations.
• All prop shafts come with a tube of k48 grease.

This fits straight onto a Defender style transfer box flange you will not require a Discovery 2 Transfer Box Flange to fit this one

Fitting advice :-
Please note these propshafts have heavy duty round flanges, when fitting make sure you clean up the diff and gearbox flange faces as you may have taken a square type flange off and the new round flange does not want to sit on top of dirt or rust.
The Slider goes to your transfer box flanges, for a Double Cardan prop the DC end goes to the front transfer box flange.
You must ensure all UJs and the slider are fully greased on fitment and are regularly greased during use.
We Grease all UJ’s and sliders here during final checks but sliders can not be filled with grease until a prop is fitted, you will need to fill the slider with grease.

This propshaft  has 3 fully greaseable UJs,  and the slider is also greaseable on these.

A NOTE FOR SWAYBAR/FRONT SHAFT RELATIONSHIPS:

When fitting a Ultra HD front propshaft to any Defender/Disco1 you will find that you will have the shaft rub on the swaybar on droop within normal driving conditions.

Also when fitting any shock beyond factory length you will also find on axle droop, your front drive shaft will come in contact with the swaybar.

Made from Aluminium - 25mm thick - our swaybar spacers are the solution!

STOP THE MUD FLYING UP THE DOOR!

This is the FULL Front Mud Shield, Mud Flap Bracket and Mud Flap KIT.

This is a pair (kit includes right hand and left hand sides)

MOUNTING BRACKETS: These mounting brackets are to move your existing standard front mudflap forward and outwards, they will stop all the mud that gets flung up the doors and onto the door handle especially when big wheels and tyres are fitted, the mounting brackets are made out of 3mm galvanized steel and come with all bolts to fit them, they will also fit if you have sill bars, rock sliders fitted as the chassis bracket has 2 mounting positions.

MUD SHIELDS: These outrigger mud shield guards will fit all Defenders, they are to stop all the mud and road salt getting on top of the front outriggers, road salt and mud settles on top of the outrigger and causes them to rot away, even galvanized chassis do suffer after a while, they also make cleaning your Land Rover much easier as the mud can’t get into the outrigger and around the footwell. They are made from a rigid but still flexible 3mm plastic material in black, they are very easy to fit they use the 2 inner wing securing screws to secure them.

MUD FLAPS Mud Flaps also included in this kit

When fitting the mud shield kits we recommend using Moly Grease on all nuts/bolts and on all the steel and galvanized fittings that bolt to alloy as it acts as a barrier to stop corrosion.

Detailed fitting instructions are supplied with the kit

G.LEWIS DIFF DRAIN/FFILL PLUGS - MAGNETIC!

Fits:- all Defenders / Discovery 1 / RRc / axles, will also fit the LT230 Transfer Box level plug

Available in pairs, or set of five

Set of five does two Axle level plugs. two Axle drain plugs, and one LT230 Transfer Box Level plug.

These are the same thread as a standard level or drain plugs (3/4 BSPT), they also have the 1/2″ square hole in them to undo or tighten them, the main benefit is they have a magnet fastened onto them that will catch any bits of metal floating around in the axle or diff, 

We always use 2 per axle, 1 as the drain plug and 1 as the level plug, it is a good thing on the level plug as when you check the oil if there is contamination on there you know something is going wrong before it is to late.

These 2020 MEGA propshafts are for those looking for our STRONGEST propshafts

These are our NEW Heavier Duty MEGA propshafts using larger 2020 Universal joints. They have a larger cap diameter compared to our smaller 1310 joints, the larger joints help handle higher torque loads.

Engines today can produce much greater power and torque, especially once tuned, with upgrades in Differential, Axle, Gearbox strengths and with large diameter aggressive tyres this is putting much more demand on your propshafts.
To better cope with this, we would recommend you go for our 2020 MEGA propshafts over our 1310 HD UNITS.

Our 2020 MEGA propshafts use Universal Joints which are 81.8mm x 30.2mm (a 1310 is 81.8mm x 27mm)

One advantage of a larger cap diameter means it has thicker trunnions which can cope with increased power and torque loads but with the joint still being 81.8mm across it remains compact.

The 2020 joints are very strong compact commercial joints.

Both joints are cap greasable which gives very easy access to get your grease gun onto the joint for greasing, you also have the choice of greasing via the centre lube in the middle of the UJ body.
If you are putting your vehicle through more extreme off-road use then there is the chance that you can knock the grease nipple off the cap. If this is a risk then you can remove the nipple in the cap and replace it with the plug we supply, you can then either grease through the centre lube or refit the cap nipple when you need to grease. Cap greased nipples must seal to hold the grease in the cap.

These propshafts are made to a very high standard, please don’t compare these to cheap import ones.

Fitting advice :-
Please note these propshafts have heavy-duty round flanges, when fitting make sure you clean up all flange faces as they should not sit on top of dirt or rust.
Brush grease onto flange faces this will help prevent rust.
The Slider goes to your transfer box flange, for a Double Cardan propshaft the DC end goes to the front transfer box flange.
You must ensure all UJs and the slider are fully greased on fitment and are regularly greased during use.
After greasing cap greased joints, you must make sure the grease nipple does not allow grease to leak back, they must seal after greasing. If you have dirt in there, they will not seal. If this is the case the grease nipple must be replaced or capped with our plug.
Always make sure your propshaft can still turn with your axle at full suspension drop out, long-travel suspension can allow the axle to drop down too far causing the joints to bind and break.

They feature

• 30 degree wide angle (2020 Series) to prevent the propshaft binding up on long-travel suspension.
• Higher torque capacity than a standard Land Rover propshaft using 63mm heavy duty tube.
• Heavy Duty Round Flange Face (not the old square type), that bolts to the gearbox and diff 79.4mm PCD.
• Higher torque capacity than a standard Land Rover propshaft.
• Heavy duty cap greased 2020 series Universal Joints(30.2 x 81.8mm) the caps have metal/rubber seals, there are also three slots machined into them to allow even distribution of grease to fill each cap when greasing.
• Rilsan coated spline for smoother operation and helps eliminate vibrations.
• Upgraded involute spline configuration with 18 splines that is also GREASEABLE which is a feature only found on our propshafts.
• Internally plug welded to hold grease in the slider.
• Double seal arrangement on the slip assembly, with 110mm of movement and full spline contact on the male and female slider to help with long-travel suspension.
• Phased when required to reduce vibrations.
• All prop shafts come with a tube of k48 grease.

These fit front and Rear, Series 2 and 3, Defender, Discovery 1, Discovery 2, Range Rover Classic. (They will not fit sailsbury axles),

They can also be used for many other makes and types of axles of similar size, Like Hilux and other mid size Japanese 4x4's

These guards weld onto the axle casing NOT the diff pan, they allow you to wash and clean behind them to stop the diff pan rusting, they are made out of 6mm mild steel and are folded to give maximum strength.

*Modification required to fit to a P38 Def rear diff

Don’t lose your rear Mudflaps again !!

This kit is to mount your existing rear mudflap to a much stronger mudflap support as the original ones tend to fall off and damage the side of your Defender, the mudflap mount is quick release so if using off road the mudflap can be removed very easily in seconds, the brackets are made out of 3mm galvanized steel and come with all bolts and fixings to fit them, the kit also incorporates a plastic mud shield that fastens to the rear tub to stop all the mud and road salt getting to where you don’t need it, they are made from a rigid but still flexible 3mm plastic material in black, the mud shield also makes cleaning your Land Rover much easier as the mud cant get into places where you don’t want it.

As you can see in the pictures there is a lot of items in this kit and you will have to cut your existing mudflaps to make them fit, it all can be done quite easily.

When fitting our mud shield kits I recommend using Moly Grease on all nuts/bolts and on all the steel and galvanized fittings that bolt to alloy as it acts like a barrier to stop corrosion..

If you are unsure if you have Square or Stepped rear tub this might help...(feel free to also just send us phots to I.D your tub)

Stepped Rear Tub is 2007 on Puma Td4 that have seats in the very back or a 110 utility that has no bulkhead behind the 2nd row of seats, the step was put in by Land Rover for rear forward facing seats.

Square Rear Tub is all 110s from the beginning of production, and up to 2007 Puma Td4s 2007 on mainly all commercial style ones, like crew cab pickups and  single cab pickups and 3 door hard top van style all have square rear tubs.

Fits front and Rear, Series 2 and 3, Defender, Discovery 1, Discovery 2, Range Rover Classic. (They will not fit Salisbury or Defender P38 Rear axle housings)

1 x Heavy Duty weld on replacement diff pan tacked together ready for you to fully weld them up.

This diff pan is one of the strongest weld on replacement diff pans available, the original diff pans are made from 1.5mm steel and rust away very quickly especially when they have a clamp on diff guard and the moisture and mud gets trapped between them. These heavy duty diff pans are made from 6mm mild steel and are folded to give maximum strength. Once fitted to your axles there is no need for a diff guard, they also come complete with a magnetic filler plug.

PLEASE NOTE WHEN WELDING THE DIY DIFF PAN UP, WELD THE OUTSIDE FIRST THEN WELD THE INSIDE, clean up the welds and then weld to your axle casing.

(By welding the outside first, and then the inside last....it will pull the diff guard back to shape, after this you can weld the diff pan to your axle casing.)

*WE CAN ALSO WELD THIS UP FOR YOU IF NEEDED - CONTACT US FOR PRICING*

Fits :- All of our 30 Degree 20.20 Jointed Wide Angle and Double Cardan MEGA Propshafts.

The Kit includes :-
1 x MEGA 2020 Cap Greased and Centre Lubed Universal Joint 81.8mm x 30.2mm.
1 x Bung and Washer (To use if removing the Cap Grease Nipple)

These joints measures 81.8mm x 30.2mm, (a 1310 is 81.8mm x 27mm) One of the things a larger cap diameter means is thicker trunnions which can cope with increased power and torque loads but with the joint still being 81.8mm across it remains compact.

Inside the caps as you can see in the picture there are 3 slots cut into each cap, these slots allow the grease to get to the 4 caps to allow even grease distribution, the caps are also sealed with NYLON / RUBBER SEALS to help stop mud and water getting into them, these joints also hold more grease to increase the joint life and should last for many years if they are greased regularly. The body of the joint is also centre lubed.

These joints are cap greasable which gives very easy access to get your grease gun on to the joint for greasing, you also have the choice of greasing via the centre lube in the middle of the UJ body. If you are putting your vehicle through more extreme off road use then there is the chance that you can knock the grease nipple off the cap, if this is a risk then you can remove the nipple in the cap and replace it with the plug  we supply, you can then either grease through the centre lube or refit the cap nipple when you need to grease.

Ensure your capped greased joint does not allow grease to leak back, they must seal after greasing. If you have dirt in there, they will not seal. If this is the case the grease nipple must be replaced or capped with our plug.

Fitting advice :-
If joints have thrust washers, make sure there is only one thrust washer in each cap, you do not want to double them up.
Always fill the caps with grease as this will help hold the needles in the cap on assembly.
Never use a socket to press the caps in as the socket is hollow this can cause the joint to push through the cap, you must use something flat.
If you can’t get the circlip in do not over press the cap as you may damage it, you may just need to tap the yoke apart to relieve the pressure caused by pressing in the caps.
You must ensure all UJs and the slider are fully greased on fitment and are regularly greased during use.
After greasing cap greased joints, you must make sure it does not allow grease to leak back, they must seal after greasing. If you have dirt in there, they will not seal. If this is the case the grease nipple must be replaced or capped with our plug.
Always make sure your propshaft can still turn with your axle at full suspension drop out, long-travel suspension can allow the axle to drop down too far causing the joints to bind and break.

On lifted vehicles the propshaft is always under more strain due to the angles they run at and greasing the joints is very important, especially after being in water and mud.

Please note :- These Universal Joints don’t fit standard Land Rover or 1310 wide angle props, they only fit our 2020 MEGA props.
