LEAKY DIFF ???

[cobraboy]

Depressed to find oil running down over your rear brakes ?
Fear not here, for sale, is a pair of diff output shafts fitted with new seals and bearing spacers - ready to fit !
It’s quite a faff to sort out leaky output shafts and most folks don’t have the tools do the job, a press is needed to fit new bearing spacers onto the shafts.
These suit cars with Girling brakes.
They add up price wise as follows- output assemblies £120 a pair, new bearing spacers £50 pair, new seals £10 pair.
For sale here for the bargain price of £100 pair.
Get ‘em while they’re hot !

****SOLD****

Well worth £100 for these! It takes me a good day to make a spacer, pull the old flange, turn off the old spacer (it’s on there very tight!), then refit the flange. And that’s with access to a lathe.

I did this job by grinding a slot in the old spacer and cracking it with a chisel. The new one will just slip on if you put the assembly in the freezer overnight and heat the sleeve to 50 degrees C in the oven before assembly. No special tools are really necessary!

The thrust collar should be a very tight fit on the output shaft.
The WM calls for a press, I used a press, I would not have said so otherwise.
Nit picking on someone elses for sale thread when you have no intention of purchasing the item is bad form.

The collars transfer lateral loads from the wheels/drive shafts I made new collars to Rovers specification. It nearly maxed out my 20 ton press.
