Would it not be worth fitting some Ashcroft shafts and CVs if your putting an ATB in? 110 Td5 Ex Utilities slowly converting into a pop top camper one day

I know people using std aftermarket LR CVs in 110" and not a problem. None of them doing hardcore offroading. Puma 110" SW

I've always used standard shafts and CVs in my 110s. Both where well past 500nm torque and both used heavily off road. Never broke one.

ATB is actually kinder to the drive train than an open diff. Instagram @defender_ventures

If you want to upgrade you won't get better than Ashcroft shafts and CVs.

Thanks for everyone the replies.

Of course I would like to Ashcroft axles and Cv-joints but I need to earn more money first. Really expensive just now for me...

I don't do extreme off-roading, but I tow a lot of caravans and trailers, even in worse conditions in winter here in skandinavia. I plan to update the same ATB in the back later as well.

Maybe I'll try to find some decent aftermarket joints (or old ones back)... Britparts seem to be available everywhere webshops, but maybe I can't trust them enough. I have some bad experiences with some Britparts items defender 110 td5 2006

Britpart CVs are fine. 33" tyres, 550nm of torque, 270hp and a heavy right foot. Never broken one on tarmac.

Allmakes are poor quality, broken a few of those. Instagram @defender_ventures
