There is a posting somewhere if you do a search.
I think the guy that has made his Bongo 2wd was Chris from Namibia.
you could try n find a 4wd/landrover garage specialist.
Also Bellhill may have front diffs.
hope you get it sorted, must be a worry.
I am sure some more experienced Bongonuts on this forum could offer some advise.
Good Luck

I've not tried this myself but ...

It looks to me as if you can remove the front part of the front prop shaft - the bit that goes from the front diff to the prop shaft support half way down the vehicle - without leaving any worrying holes in the drive system.

I believe there's a fact sheet in the member's area...

You can disconnect the front diff - but only if the problem lies between the diff and the V.C., otherwise the faulty diff will keep turning with the front wheels :?
