Re: Severe diff noise

I waited for 2 months for the new outer diff oil seals. I used a modern full rubber jacket seal. Hope it works well. The originals from Kanter/Max Meritt was too expensive for me. About R400 SA Rands compared to the R30 Sa Rands for the ones I put in. I can get the numbers if you want as I bought some extras in case I mess it up on install.

The test drive proved successfull -no diff noises , only some small gear noise from the gearbox which is normal. Thus far the seals seem to hold as I did not detect any leaks. I hope that the pinion shaft seal will be all right as I also used a modern rubber seal in the original seal fitting.

Here is some photos. It was a hell of a hard job to remove everything and put it back again!
