If I have a new gasket do you need to use anything else (Sealer) or use the new gasket by itself?
Any other tricks or should do's to put in?
Cheers
my 4.3 is 35.8 so i think yours is 4.1 if its says 37.9
Yeah, it will be good to get fixed up. Hope to have done by 3pm to shoot off with the wifey and kids for the weekend. I have never put a diff in before though. Tips?
I would use some gasket sealer, probably be O.K. without just personal choice.Quote:

What a dodgey bloke. . . Hope he gets his carma coming to him. . . Good luck.
Is there any way to make the seller pay for the broken hub and diff?
No chance. Too long ago. Bought it just over a year ago and it has been a bit dodgy but did the swivel hubs, bearings etc and the front end was heaps tighter but it highlighted the diff issue.
I would use the sealant too, as you dont want to have to pull it apart twice if you can help it....
you can always have a hand in sending some karma aroundQuote:
