Diff rebuild, well sortof.. :D

[Ivan141]

ahh finally some pictures of that busy day..
Rebuilding diffs is a hell of a job to undertake. Probably made a couple of mistakes on this one, but that's what secondhand crap is for...learning!
I'm not even sure this ringgear and the pinion we used are a matching set.. since 2 diffs got a bit mixed up in my basement. Time will tell, we'll check the contact pattern before installing it, if it's wrong, we'll just throw the LSD into the correct 3rd member and readjust.

I'm postponing the install of my brandnew 4.5 gears until we get the hang of it though, and untill I get a solid pinion spacer for it.

I also brought along the open diff that went with that chewed up pinion.. it was still in good nick, so we had Ed have a go at it with some MIG&TIG action..
So I now have a spare CO2-LSD too.
